A luxurious vodka with a smooth, clean profile and subtle notes of citrus and almond.
Grey Goose is a premium French vodka that has established itself as one of the world's most recognizable luxury spirits. Created in the Cognac region of France, it represents the perfect marriage of French craftsmanship and superior ingredients.
How It's Made
Grey Goose is crafted using soft winter wheat from the fertile Picardy region, known as the "breadbasket of France." The wheat is distilled into a clear, neutral spirit and blended with pristine spring water naturally filtered through champagne limestone in Gensac-la-Pallue.
The production process involves a unique five-step distillation system, ensuring exceptional smoothness and character. Each batch is overseen by their Maître de Chai (Cellar Master) to maintain consistent quality.
