Blackback Mountain Strength Vodka 46%

Description

Blackback Mountain Strength Vodka is a small batch vodka, made by the Gorilla Spirits Co. It is bottled at a “Mountain Strength” of 46% ABV.

The Gorilla Spirits Co. was founded by Andy Daniels and was born out of a passion for wishing to produce high-quality, artisan spirits while also supporting conservation efforts. Andy spent four years perfecting the Mountain Strength Gin recipe until the first release in 2015. The original distillery was located in Four Marks near Alton but, needing more space, they relocated to the village of Upton Grey, southeast of Basingstoke, in the summer of 2018. As of 2024, the spirits are made at the Spirit of Manchester Distillery.

As well as this fabulous vodka they also produce various other gins, including Silverback Mountain Strength, an Old Tom, Wild Strawberry Gin, Karisimbi Spiced Rum and Maraba coffee liqueurs. Their products have received many awards and accolades for their quality and craftsmanship.

Blackback Mountain Strength Vodka is made from 100% British grain and handcrafted in Gorilla Spirits’ digitally controlled pot still in small batches to produce a wonderfully smooth and luxurious vodka. A slow distillation allows plenty of interaction between the alcohol vapours and the copper. This is what gives it such an incredible character.

For every bottle of Blackback Mountain Strength Vodka sold in the UK, Gorilla Spirits add GAT (Gorilla Added Tax). For each bottle sold, 10% of the profits go directly to The Gorilla Organization who are working to save the last remaining gorillas from extinction.

Each bottle is made from 100% post consumer recycled glass, meaning that it is made from the glass that all of us have put into our recycling bins!
