Flavored vodka at work...one would say a PINNACLE of taste!

For those of you who know us, it is common knowledge that we are Vodka drinkers. For those of you who don't know us, now you know! We spend a lot of time researching spirit's and liqueur's among many other booze newz.

Recently we came upon a French vodka distilled using traditional and ancestral recipes according to the website. Its base comes from the finest wheat grain grown in the Brie region of France and their filtration process uses coal which has been said superior to other components used for the same process. This vodka is quadruple distilled producing a high proof spirit.

Pinnacle Vodka has hit the flavored vodka market hard. It's a dream come true for Steve and I. Now we get to play in our favorite playground....behind the bar! I like my martini's mixed and full of flavor and Steve likes to concoct delicious libations for us to share.....pinnacle creates a roster of vodkas that could lead up to months of experimentation? Oh and I'm ready for the challenge.


With 28 flavor options available (70 proof): Apple, Banana, Berry, Blueberry, Butterscotch, Cake, Cherry, Cherry Lemonade, Cherry Whipped, Chocolate, Chocolate Whipped, Citrus, Cotton Candy, Espresso, Grape, Kiwi-Strawberry, Le Double Espresso, Melon, Mango, Orange, Orange Whipped, Pomegranate, Raspberry, Root Beer, Tropical Punch, Vanilla and Whipped Cream…you are sure to find a flavor that suits you. Or stick with Pinnacle Classic Vodka (80 proof) and enjoy it neat or on the rocks.

To the best of my knowledge not all of the flavors are available in Canada but the more we drink the more will come I'm sure. We have contacted the company and waiting to see how their customer service department responds. Their website is pretty cool with flash images that are esthetically pleasing. Its easy to navigate around the website and there is just enough information. It not over inundated with pages of paragraphs rambling on about how good the product is.



The product comes from White Rock Distilleries and great news they have an awesome contest called "WHIP IT UP"!! Where you create your own recipe for a chance to win 10,000.00. We have started the mixology already and even if we don't win we'll enjoy the journey. heehee!

  1. Ok so here is a question....if your product is made with the finest wheat grain, how can it be Gluten Free? Some people are really allergic to even small amounts of Gluten.
