Production Process
OCEAN Organic Vodka is certified organic and distilled from organic sugar cane and blended with deep ocean mineral water. The sugarcane is harvested on property, juiced, and fermented. The mash is then run through continuous column distillation in full size towers that each contain more than 100 platelets.
Tasting Notes
Boquet:
It has a slight note of sugarcane on the nose.
Pallet:
On the palate, it is particularly “smooth,” though its mouthfeel is slightly thin. The mouthfeel does improve with ice, however we feel this also mutes Ocean Vodka flavors. It has very little astringency and is slightly sweet, with a short, clean finish. This makes it reminiscent of a white Puerto Rican Rum, though more neutral.
Cocktail Approach
Hawaii Beverage Guide Commentary
Ocean Vodka is the most neutral of the vokas we tried. We feel Ocean works well as a chilled vodka shot, in vodka soda, or in any other drink in which very subtle flavor and low astringency is desired. In the POG, the Ocean was too subtle for our liking, in that it almost disappeared altogether. We do recognize, however, that this is a desirable trait for some.
