Malted barley vodka. Steam smoothed. Never filtered.
Puffing Billy Steam Vodka is unfiltered malted barley vodka, named for the rare still which plays a key role in its production.
First we pot-distil spirit from locally-grown barley, then we re-distil it into vodka using Puffing Billy, our specially-commissioned Carterhead Still.
Regular filtration would strip away the delicious flavour and texture of our locally-grown barley, so instead the spirit is steamed through charcoal inside the still itself and never filtered as a liquid.
Puffing Billy is the only vodka in the world made this way, and the result is brimful of character with an incredible creamy mouthfeel.
