Ice is harvested by former cod fishermen from 12,000-year-old icebergs off the northeast coast of Newfoundland as they float south from the Canadian Arctic. This is melted and filtered, then blended with four-column distilled neutral spirits made from Canadian sweetcorn from Ontario.

The blend of melt water and corn spirit is left to marry for three days before being filtered through a series of charcoal pads prior to bottling in a unique bottle designed to resemble a chiselled piece of ice. Iceberg vodka was first launched in September 1995.

Review and Tasting

Sampled on 12/03/2012

Appearance:

Crystal clear.

Aroma:

Lightly buttery, corn on the cob nose and icing sugar dusted croissant.

Taste:

Clean, soft palate with buttery corn emerging mid-palate, together with underlying sweetness - faint confectioner's strawberry-like flavour and cracked black spirit bite.

Aftertaste:

Clean finish with aniseed and lingering sweetness.
