2008 International Wine and Spirit Competition

The Vodka Purity Trophy (last awarded in 1987)
Gold (Best in Class) Non-European Vodka

“Being recognized as the Purest Vodka in the World at the International Wine and Spirits Competition in London last year was an amazing experience. I was honored to be in the company of the great legends of distilling. When I accepted the award, I nearly dropped it because I didn't expect it to be so heavy. However, I managed to get off stage without incident.”—Gary Kelleher, Master Distiller

Comments from IWSC:
"Among the 1,000 entries in the spirits and liqueurs categories, there were a number of triumphs for lesser known brands, such as Dripping Springs Texas Vodka being awarded The Purity Vodka Trophy, beating major brands from Russia, Poland and Scandinavia..." Frances Horder, Director, IWSC

Judges Tasting Notes:
Crystal clear. Piercing nose with no apparent smell yet lively alcoholic sensation in the nose. Full impact on the palate with abundant, mouth filling sensation. Tremendous intensity. Decided grainy note in the super smooth mouth. Finest texture. Fascinating notes in long, well controlled finish. A great sipping vodka.
