Made from Cascade Mountain water in Oregon, Star Vodka is the latest luxury alcohol to hit the market. Star Room nightclub owner Charles Ferri is the maker of this luxury vodka named Star Vodka.

Star Vodka is a gluten-free luxury vodka that’s actually hard to get a hold of. Even the rich and famous have to wait their turn.

Why? Because Charles Ferri wants to ensure that there’s only a limited number of batches. Ferri’s goal is to be the highest quality and smoothest vodka on the market today.

Star Vodka uses the finest grain available to produce the gluten-free vodka. Star Vodka is made at a micro-distillery in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon.

Star Vodka is carefully filtered five times through organically cooled lava rock.

You will be able to taste Star Vodka at various events across the country, including one on August 23 at Grassmere Farm in New York’s Hamptons.

Star Vodka will sponsor an event with the ASPCA Equine Fund. The event will be hosted by Kelly Ripa.

Double Cross Vodka

With the massive amounts of vodka for sale on the market, a company has to be creative about how their product looks in order to grab your attention. The bottles are getting to be more and more unique and now Double Cross Vodka has launched with yet another design award winner.

Double Cross Vodka is unique in that it’s been distilled seven times and filtered through diamond dust. Apparently this filtration leaves an exceedingly tasty vodka that hints at white pepper and lemon zest.

This vodka out of Slovakia has already won Double Gold for bottle design but there hasn’t been any mention of it winning anything for taste. Very little is known about it’s makeup right now as the press release is pretty thin on details, except for how proud they are of it’s design.
