'the reid' Single Malt Vodka is made from just three ingredients; barley, water and yeast. Named for three of the distillery's founders, 'the reid' starts life in the same way as our Single Malt Whisky, giving fullness and body to this uncompromising Vodka. The Scottish two-row barley is milled, mashed and then fermented. It is then distilled our 7.5 metre German column still. We then add back our pure, alpine Cardrona water to bottle strength of 44 percent alcohol by volume.
