Tasting Notes

How It's Made

Fun Facts

Product Details

Nose: Clean and subtle with hints of fresh citrus peel, particularly lemon and lime. A delicate floral note reminiscent of jasmine tea leaves lingers in the background, accompanied by a faint whisper of vanilla.

Palate: Smooth and creamy texture with a gentle warmth. Initial flavors of ripe pear and green apple give way to a soft, grainy sweetness. A touch of white pepper spice adds complexity without overwhelming the palate. The grape influence is subtle but noticeable, offering a unique fruity depth.

Finish: Medium-long and clean. A pleasant warmth spreads across the palate, leaving behind traces of sweet grain, a hint of grape skin, and a whisper of lemon zest. The finish is remarkably smooth with minimal alcohol burn, making it highly sippable neat or an excellent base for cocktails.

Hangar 1 Vodka is uniquely crafted by blending a wheat-based neutral spirit with vodka distilled from Viognier grapes, resulting in a smooth, balanced spirit with subtle fruity notes. This innovative combination of grain and grape-based vodkas sets Hangar 1 apart, creating a more nuanced flavor profile than traditional grain-only vodkas.

Hangar 1 Vodka is distilled in a repurposed World War II-era aircraft hangar on a former naval air station in Alameda, California, giving the brand its unique name and a genuine connection to aviation history.

Unlike most vodkas that use only grains or potatoes, Hangar 1 uses a blend of wheat and grapes (specifically Viognier grapes) in their base spirit, resulting in a distinctively smooth and slightly fruity flavor profile that sets it apart from traditional vodkas.

The brand's commitment to using fresh, local ingredients extends to their flavored vodkas, which are made by infusing real fruits and botanicals directly into the spirit, rather than using artificial flavors. For their Buddha's Hand Citron vodka, they even hand-peel each exotic citrus fruit to capture its aromatic oils.
