Virtuous Vodka

In 2013, Swedish chef and taste visionary Claes Stenmark created Virtuous Vodka with a singular mission: to craft a spirit that matched the exceptional quality of ingredients he used in his kitchen. Rejecting the industry convention of stripping away flavor, Stenmark deliberately preserved the authentic taste of organic Nordic rye. The result is an unfiltered, handcrafted vodka that celebrates rather than masks its raw materials. Winner of the Vodka Trophy and Spirits Gold Outstanding at the International Wine & Spirits Competition 2023, scoring 99 out of 100 points, Virtuous represents a philosophical departure from traditional vodka production. It contains no additives, no added sugar, and no artificial ingredients—only real rye flavor. The portfolio is gluten-free and vegan, appealing to conscientious drinkers seeking authenticity and quality in their spirits.

Continuously distilled in Northern Sweden using organic rye as the base ingredient. The vodka is bottled without chill-filtration to preserve the full character and natural flavors of the grain. Spring water sourced locally. No preservatives, additives, or added sugar used in production. The unfiltered approach allows the distinctive bready, peppery, and subtle vanilla notes to remain intact.
