Although it shines in bitters, tinctures and infusions, this overproof version of F. Paul Pacult's top vodka in the world three years running is spectacular in its own right. Aromas of potato skins and biscuits swirl on the nose before leading to warm, buttery palate filled with notes of soy. The finish is deep and surprising, with lingering hints of sweet potatoes.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPick up a “professional” vodka today!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-brand-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Boyd \u0026amp; Blair\u003c\/h2\u003e\n                                            In an old warehouse with a cracking facade and grass growing in the rain gutters, Master Distiller Barry Young rests his hand on a custom-made, 1,200-liter copper pot still. Inside the still, Young, the former CEO of RX Partners, a pharmaceutical services company, is distilling another batch of Boyd \u0026amp; Blair Vodka. Using only locally-sourced Pennsylvania potatoes, each batch of Boyd \u0026amp; Blair Vodka is made from scratch and tasted twenty times before being labeled and bottled by hand. The potatoes, Young says, produce a silkier, sweeter vodka than traditional grains such as wheat, rye or corn.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nAlong with his partner-in-crime, Prentiss Orr, Young carefully monitors each step of the production process. While most commercial distilleries reuse the “tails” of the distillate in order to improve yield, Young and Orr and discard it due to its inferior quality and bottle only the “hearts.” The result is an exceptionally smooth and flavorful vodka.                                         \u003cdiv class=\"brand-link\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/?brand_dropdown=3043\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eExplore all Boyd \u0026amp; Blair bottles \u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Vodka\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHistorians are not clear on the exact origin of vodka since different sources link its beginning to both Russia and Poland.
