Neutral climate, rich soil, and distinct craftsmanship are the centerpiece of LumiereVodka.
our process
CULTIVATION
The finest Dutch Barley is selected and then malted to bring out the sweetness of the grain. Panela from a specific region of El Salvador is produced and then shipped to the Netherlands.
fermentatioN
LumiereVodka is slowly fermented for 72 hours using our trade-secret strain of yeast. Good-tasting flavors and pleasant aromas begin to form as the mash ferments into a beer of 8-10% alcohol by volume.
DISTILLATION
LumiereVodka is first distilled in a 450-liter copper whiskey still to develop an unusual depth of flavor. LumiereVodka is then distilled twice in a 100-liter Polish-origin reflux still.
FILTRATION
LumiereVodka is non-filtered to retain all of its pleasant-tasting properties. Close examination and testing are conducted on each finishing distillation run to meet a stringent set of standards that will guarantee we get taste right the first time.
