FAIR Quinoa Vodka

FAIR Quinoa Vodka

It is produced from Quinoa, a type of grain grown by the Incas from about the 13th century. It also is described as the first fair trade-certified vodka in the world as it is certified as a fair trade organization who pays fair prices to the agricultural cooperative (of over 1000 small growers in Bolivia). The actual distillation and bottling is done in France by cognac distillers of almost 40 years of xperience. Distilled 5 times in a 42 plate still for those who like technical specs. Quinoa is also a gluten-free form of grain so does not have the wheat/gluten issues of other vodkas such as Grey Goose.
