Black Cow Vodka & English Strawberries 37.5% | Dorset Vodka

Description

Black Cow Vodka & English Strawberries is an all-natural strawberry-flavoured Dorset Vodka. A great, aromatic vodka, perfect for summer sipping and cocktails.

Created by dairy farmer Jason Barber, this sustainable vodka is crafted using milk from grass-grazed cows at Childhay Manor Farm. Since its launch in 2012, Black Cow Vodka has become known for its exceptionally smooth texture and innovative production method.

The Story Behind Black Cow Vodka

Jason Barber is a fifth-generation dairy farmer. His family farm (that he continues to run) is a mile or so up the road from the distillery. He created Black Cow Vodka to make use of whey, the liquid byproduct left over after making Black Cow Deluxe Cheddar from his herd’s milk. Traditionally, whey was often discarded or used as animal feed, but Barber saw its potential due to its high lactose (sugar) content. It takes about 20 litres of milk to produce 1 litre of “the world’s smoothest vodka.”

How Black Cow Vodka & English Strawberries Is Made

• The production process begins with fresh whole milk from grass-fed cows on the Dorset coast.
• This is distilled and turned into Black Cow Vodka.
• To make Black Cow Vodka & English Strawberries, this vodka is infused with locally sourced, natural strawberries.
• Only locally sourced, leftover or misshapen English strawberries that would otherwise go to waste are used.
• All natural, no added sugar or sweeteners.

Unlike many flavoured vodkas that rely on sugary syrups, Black Cow Strawberry is defined by the clean, crisp essence of real fruit. On the nose, it offers a bouquet of freshly picked berries and a hint of cream. The palate is light and refreshing, with the natural sweetness of English strawberries balanced by the signature smooth, velvety finish of the milk vodka base

Lactose-Free and Gluten-Free Dorset Vodka

Although Black Cow Strawberry Vodka is made from milk, the final spirit contains no lactose, making it suitable for people with lactose intolerance. It is also naturally gluten-free, as the distillation process removes proteins from the base ingredient.

The Black Cow Range

As well as this sustainable, strawberry-flavoured vodka, the distillery produces their famous pure milk vodka (also available from Fareham Wine Cellar), a Christmas Spirit (“Christmas pudding in a glass”) and a ready-to-serve Negroni cocktail.
