Organic
-
Ghost Hill Organic Vodka is made using organic grains, specifically sourced to ensure purity and sustainability. These grains are grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs), supporting both the environment and the health of consumers.

At High Basin Brands, our commitment to quality begins with an organic process that defines our vodka. We source only the finest organic grains, grown without synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. This dedication to purity ensures that each grain is as clean and flavorful as possible, providing a robust foundation for our spirit.
The production process begins with fermentation, where these organic grains are transformed into sugar and subsequently converted into alcohol using traditional methods. Our master distillers carefully monitor each step to ensure that the fermentation is not only effective but also enhances the natural flavors of the grains.
After fermentation, the resulting liquid undergoes distillation in copper pot stills, a method that allows for precision and refinement. This artisanal approach captures the essence of the organic ingredients while filtering out impurities. Our vodka is distilled multiple times to achieve a level of smoothness and clarity that is characteristic of high-quality spirits.
Following distillation, we incorporate a meticulous filtration process that utilizes charcoal, further purifying the vodka and imparting a silky mouthfeel. Finally, the vodka is blended with ultra-purified water, sourced from pristine aquifers, to achieve the perfect balance.
The result is a vodka that embodies not only the essence of our organic ingredients but also the sophistication of our artisanal techniques. Each bottle is a tribute to our dedication to quality and sustainability, ensuring that every sip reflects the finest in organic craft.
