Rehorst Vodka
Great Vodka for those with Exceptional Taste.
Hand made in small batches with old world methods and traditions. Made 100% from grain, our vodka gets its naturally sweet and smooth taste from a mash of Wisconsin-grown red wheat and red wheat malt. Discarding the heads and tails of each batch, only the most desirable ‘middle cut’ is bottled to produce the best-tasting vodka possible. Each step of the Rehorst Vodka creation process is supervised by our master distiller.
Clear and pure, with wheaty top notes, a medium bodied palate, and a gently fading finish with no burn. Makes an excellent martini or drink neat.
Rehorst Vodka won a Gold Medal at the 2021 U.S. Open Spirits Championship.

The Reviews are in!
Wine Enthusiast: 90-95 points Superb highly recommended.
Beverage Experts: “Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose is clean and subtle, offering scents of farina backed by citrus and accents of mineral and talc. The palate echoes the nose, delivering a silky, cereal-driven core with waves of citrus zest, slate, and lush mineral tones and a touch of vanilla. Medium-bodied with perfect balance and a velvety texture that, while generous, finishes dry.” –4.5 Stars
The Beverage Testing Institute says… “Clear. Cream, cream of wheat, and faint dried citrus aromas. A round, supple entry leads to a dryish medium-to-full body of rather neutral powdered sugar, wet mineral, and orange marmalade flavors with a an interesting copper tang. Finishes with a long, sweet, delicately citrusy, wet stone fade”. Silver Medal- Highly Recommended.
SpiritReview.com says… “One of the few vodkas that are actually worth paying over $25 for. About the same money as either Stoli or the Avian Fashion Victim Vodka, with more honesty, sincerity (meaning they worked for it rather than used short cuts), complexity, and sense of place”.

Rehorst Citrus & Honey Vodka
Real Lemons + Pure Wisconsin Honey
Rehorst Citrus Honey Vodka is made with REAL fresh lemons and pure Wisconsin Honey!
Any distillery can make a citrus vodka, and most do. What makes ours different is our hand-crafted approach. We use real fruit, unlike most distilleries that typically use industrial flavorings. Their vodkas taste like candy, ours tastes like real fruit. Try it against any other citrus vodka and we’re convinced you’ll appreciate the REAL difference!
We also use pure Wisconsin honey in our citrus vodka. The honey gives our vodka a unique taste and produces a smoother finish. Our honey comes from Wisconsin Natural Acres– These artisan beekeepers, like us, know that sometimes the old methods are better. They produce the purest honey available from Alfalfa, Clover and Basswood, use no additives and do not blend with foreign or inferior honey.
The honey in our vodka adds an interesting twist to cocktails you typically may drink with a citrus-only vodka. Try it in a Martini! It makes an awesome Cosmopolitan and great with tonic, cranberry juice, or ginger ale.

Beverage Experts: “Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose is pleasingly forward with an elevated, honey-tinged lemon drop coming to mind. The palate echoes the nose, with the honey providing the perfect platform to carry the bright citrus notes is perfect harmony. Medium-bodied and ideally balanced with lovely pepper notes rising on the finish. This citrus- flavored vodka relies on balance rather than sugary sweetness, and the cocktail possibilities are endless.” –4 Stars
Anne Schamberg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel had this to say: “… not at all sweet, might well be the all-time winner when it comes to vodka and tonic”.
The Beverage Testing Institute Awarded Rehorst Citrus & Honey Flavored Vodka a Gold Medal and had this to say about it- “Finishes vibrantly with fresh twisted lemon zest and honey creme Anglaise on the lightly peppery, grain flour finish. A very crafty vodka sure to inspire similarly crafty cocktails…” 90 Points- Exceptional
The Spirits Review rated Rehorst Citrus Honey Vodka 9 out of 10, calling it a damn fine citrus vodka.
