The light mouthfeel is playful, and compliments the finish, which has a touch of vanilla.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nOnly 750 bottles of Vermont Spirits Limited Release Vodka were produced last year.  \"Our goal is to produce vodkas with flavor, not flavored vodkas,\" says Gorman.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nGet a bottle of this flavorful vodka today, or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/vodka-duo\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Vodka Duo\"\u003etry it in a duo with the excellent Prairie Handcrafted Vodka!\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-brand-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Vermont Spirits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n                                            Native to the hardwood forests of New England, maple trees produce an average of nearly four gallons of sap each spring.  Just before winter, the trees stockpile starch and sugar in order to survive the freezing nights and short days of New England's harsh climate. As the temperatures warm, the trees convert the sugar into sap, which they begin releasing in a matter of weeks.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn Vermont, master distiller Harry Gorman collects the early runs of the sap produced by the state's maple trees. The early runs  — the sap that is released by the tree just after winter — is lighter in color than traditional sap, and has a more delicate and subtle flavor profile.  \"A very small percentage of the sugar maple's sap output comes in the form of early run sap,\" says Gorman. \"Early run sap is the cream off the top of an altogether wonderfully delicious sugar.\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAfter harvesting the sap, Gorman ferments it slowly using a proprietary strain of yeast at his distillery — Vermont Spirits — situated on the banks of the Ottaquechee River in eastern Vermont. Following fermentation, the vodka is distilled three times using a fractionating column still, allowing Gorman to isolate and separate any impurities and produce an incredibly pure and smooth vodka. After each distillation, the vodka is lightly filtered with charcoal. Then, Gorman and his team of distillers fill and label each bottle by hand. \"It takes the early run sap of an entire tree to produce one bottle of this vodka,\" says Gorman.                                        \u003cdiv class=\"brand-link\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/?brand_dropdown=4013\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eExplore all Vermont Spirits 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.
