Gray Whale Vodka 750ml

Gray Whale is a spirits brand inspired by the migratory journey of the gray whale along the Pacific coastline, owned by Deutsch Family Wines & Spirits and built first around an award-winning gin. In April 2026, the brand expanded into vodka, its second product, produced by the same California-based team responsible for the original gin. Alongside the launch, Gray Whale announced a partnership with the Surfrider Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to ocean conservation, reflecting the brand's broader commitment to environmental causes tied to its coastal identity.

Gray Whale Vodka is a small-batch spirit distilled from a combination of grain and California grapes, an unusual pairing meant to lend a touch of natural sweetness alongside the clean character of a traditional grain vodka. The spirit goes through multiple distillations along with a careful filtration process aimed at achieving clarity and smoothness while still preserving some of the character contributed by the grape component. It is additive-free and gluten-free, consistent with the brand's broader emphasis on simple, terroir-driven ingredients.

The nose offers a delicate floral lift alongside soft citrus brightness and a whisper of mineral character. On the palate, the vodka turns silky and round, with the California grapes contributing gentle texture and a light sweetness that balances the clean grain base. The finish is crisp and refreshing, closing dry with a polished, lingering smoothness that reflects the freshness of its ingredients.
