Handcrafted in the Texas Hill Country, Dripping Springs Vodka is made with sweet, Mid-Western corn and is naturally gluten-free. The Houston Kashruth Association certifies Dripping Springs Vodka as Kosher. Dripping Springs is micro-distilled 20 times in copper pot stills in small 50-gallon batches. It is then mixed with pure, mineral-rich artesian spring water from the Texas Hill Country before a final clarifying slow filtration through Swedish activated charcoal. Dripping Springs is lush and balanced, with a smooth finish. Dripping Springs Vodka won Gold Best in Class and the Vodka Purity Trophy at the International Wine & Spirit Competition in 2008. It is the only American Vodka to have won the Vodka Purity Trophy in 50 years of the IWSC, which is the world's largest and most prestigious Liquor and Wine competition.
