Ketel One is a premium vodka brand founded in 1691 by the Nolet family in Schiedam, Netherlands. It is known for its meticulous production process and commitment to quality. The vodka is distilled from 100% GMO-free European wheat, using a combination of traditional pot still (named "Distilleerketel #1" after which the brand is named) and modern column still distillation. This unique method results in a distinctly fresh, crisp, and smooth vodka, favored for both sipping and cocktails. Ketel One's historical legacy and innovative approach to distillation have made it a respected name in the world of premium spirits.
Ketel One Vodka is distilled in a combination of column and pot stills, including a traditional 19th-century coal-fired pot still, which adds to its unique character. This distillation process contributes to the robust aroma and smooth finish, making it ideal both for sipping and mixing in cocktails.
