Our Best Guide to Vodka Products
So what separates the best vodkas from the worst? Why is this spirit so compatible with fruit such as damsons and other botanicals? And should you choose vodka derived from grains and wheat, or use a top potato vodka for your best cocktail menus?

Why Choose British Made Vodka?
Many vodka brands you see will have travelled across country borders to reach our shores, whether it’s been produced in the United States, France, Sweden, Russia or beyond. You may even have purchased Russian or Polish vodka multiple times before.
However, by choosing a British based vodka drink, there are several benefits. This includes supporting both the local and national economy, taking responsibility for where you purchase products from and reducing your food miles and carbon footprint.
Some British vodka brands you see on the market may still source products from around the world for their drinks range, or use United States distilleries. However, at Gattertop Drinks Co, we only use 100% British-made vodka, and all our damson and botanical ingredients are home-grown at our Herefordshire farm.
How Is Vodka Made?
From bison grass and winter wheat vodkas to potato vodka, there are lots of different varieties on the market. Unlike many brands that use international products from the United States, Poland, Russia or anywhere else around the world, the British vodka we’ve chosen has been derived from sugar beet. This means it’s free from ingredients such as wheat (as found in winter wheat vodka), gluten, oats, barley and rye.
What Are the Best Vodkas?
Move over wine and beer! Spirit brands are one of the most popular alcoholic drinks in the UK, but what can change the quality of the vodka used? Premium vodka (e.g. pure milk Black Cow vodka) is made using carefully selected methods to ensure the taste, texture and odour is of the highest quality. We use artisan methods when producing our distilled vodkas, infusing the ingredients in small batches to produce an outstanding spirit.
Why Should You Use Vodka for Infused Spirits?
Vodka is one of the best drinks for producing infused spirits. While many brands choose gin for this type of drink, it has a juniper-heavy base which may overcomplicate the flavour profile in the bottle. Vodka has an untainted, crisp and cleaner taste, allowing the flavour of the additional ingredients added to come through.
What Type of Vodka Do We Use?
At Gattertop Drinks Co, we’ve chosen one of the best premium-grain vodka brands for our Damson No 12 and Botanic No 7 products. We’ve found this produces a creamy, smooth taste and untainted flavour when infusing our spirits with fruit and botanicals. It makes it easier to infuse the perfect blend of subtle notes in every bottle we produce.
Why Is Vodka Our Spirit of Choice?
We choose vodka for both our Damson No 12 and Botanic No 7 as it allows the natural flavour of our ingredients to hold their own right in every sip. Whether it’s the perfect profile produced by seven hand-picked botanicals (Botanic No 7) or the enhanced damson flavour (Damson No 12), you can discover new and unusual flavours which sit outside the juniper base, which can often be the overriding taste in other brands.
How Is Vodka Served?
Vodka can be served using a variety of classic methods. One of the best ways to enjoy it is mixed with tonic water or a soda such as ginger ale or fizz. However, if choosing a fruity or botanical vodka drink, you could even serve it neat, straight over ice or add it to your cocktails.
Which Cocktails Use Vodka?
Want to spice up your cocktail menus?
Both classic and contemporary cocktails use vodka to help produce the best taste. You can even add vodka to cocktails you would usually associate with other spirits, such as gin, rum or tequila. Why not try our vodkas in your margaritas, martinis, bloody Mary drinks and more? The best vodkas will often enhance the flavours of the other ingredients in the cocktail made.
Our Vodka Products
Are you on the search for the best vodkas? Buy our smooth, infused spirits, including our award-winning Damson No 12 and exceptional Botanic No 7. Here’s a little more information about our unique range.
Botanic No7
Our Botanic No 7 vodka has an abv of 38%, distilled via a traditional copper pot still technique to achieve a smooth, high-quality product. It’s made from the best combination of botanicals, which we’ve put together to help each subtle note come through. All seven ingredients are picked at our country farm, from our orchards and gardens to our fields and woodlands. You’ll taste notes of elderflower, basil, nettles, apple blossom, damson blossom, lemon and rosemary coming through – the taste of the English country in a glass!
Damson No12
Our Damson No 12 has an abv of 23%, producing an intense and fruity flavour, complementing the creamy and smooth texture of our premium-grain vodka. Our Damson No 12 range has been steeped for a minimum of a year to ensure a greater depth of flavour, from the delicious damsons distilled in the vodka to the almond and marzipan notes coming through from the fruit stones. Some top brands only steep their vodka for a few weeks or months, so the unique taste isn’t as good.
Why Should You Make an Order with Gattertop Drinks Co?
High-Quality
If you’re looking for quality spirit brands, you’ll like our range of well-established infused vodkas. The rich notes you’ll taste shine through the more neutral flavour of the untainted vodka. We’ve used a premium spirit over other brands (free from rye, gluten, wheat, barley and oats) to ensure the content in every bottle meets our exacting standards.
Range of Products
As well as classic single bottles of our Damson No 12 and Botanic No 7, you can also find mixed packages, miniatures and seasonal bundles on our website. Our products are ideal for fans of both sloe gin and vodka, whether you’d like a first taster with a mixed order of both Damson No 12 and Botanic No 7, or you’d like to treat someone special to one of our gifts. You could also buy our spirits for those who love to experiment with their cocktail making skills, adding our vodkas straight into their recipes to give an enhanced fruity or herbal flavour.
Award-Winning
The creamy, smooth and distinctly fruity flavour of our distilled vodka was so well-received that our Damson No 12 was awarded a top accolade, becoming a Great Taste Award champion in 2019. This is one of the best-recognised seals of approval for choosing good food and drink in the country.
Sustainable Brand
If you want to shop more sustainably, one of the best ways to do this is to search a little harder for information on how brands ensure they use eco-conscious processes. We want to be one of the first brands in line to do this in an industry where environmentally friendly practices have sometimes been lacking. This includes our pledge to protect our local country environment, preserve our orchards, become carbon neutral and use only 100% recyclable materials. Not content to just meet the minimum standards, we aim to continually become more sustainable over the next year and beyond.
