Premium Vodka was created in the heart of the
Colorado Rocky Mountains. It was in the little
mountain town of Manitou Springs, at the base of
Pikes Peak where the idea of a Colorado vodka
began. Rob and Gail Stephens, proprietors of
historic restaurants in the area, had been serving
their guests the foods and flavors of Colorado for
many years. Here at these restaurants the
Stephenses first made Colorado fruit-infused vodka
for their customers. The infusions were a smashing
success and in no time, the Stephenses realized
that the purity of Colorado's water would make an
exceptional tasting vodka.
For centuries
local Native Americans drank this water and named
their springs Manitou, meaning "Great Spirit".
Since then many people have traveled from distant
lands to drink and bathe in these healing waters.
As Katherine Lee Bates stood atop Pikes Peak, she
saw the "amber waves of grain" that inspired her
to write "America the Beautiful". With Colorado
water and these grains, the Stephenses have
created a pure, original, American vodka in the
truest sense.
The actual
location of the mountain spring water used in
Colorado Premium Vodka is a closely guarded secret
to ensure its purity and integrity. The water
comes from snow that melted thousands of years
ago. It bubbles to the surface from 8,000 feet
below, creating a unique spring that only Colorado
can call its own.
The spring
water glistens like a pristine mountain lake and
is naturally filtered to a submicron level, which
still allows for healthful minerals like calcium
and potassium to impart a fresh, clean spring
water flavor.
It is with
great pride that the Stephenses offer you the
purity of the Colorado Rocky Mountains, and the
rare opportunity to enjoy the unique taste of
nature itself! |
