In a recent and rigorous blind taste test by TheFiftyBest.com, an online guide to fine living, Manatawny Still Works’ Three Bitches Wheat Vodka was awarded a gold medal.
“It’s encouraging to be recognized for the spirit on its own merit,” said Max Pfeffer, Manatawny Still Works’ master distiller. “We definitely believe our vodka is one of the best on the market.”
A panel of seven seasoned judges tasted and evaluated the contenders for the distinguished “Best Domestic Vodka” awards for 2015.
The judges noted a nose of honey, cocoa, grain and light herbs; a palate of cocoa, honey, light cream, grain, anise, cucumber, mineral and cigar box; and a mossy, gentle, complex and zesty finish. They concluded that Three Bitches is “exceptionally smooth and balanced.”
Using professional criteria, the prequalified panel of judges blind-tasted the vodkas and rated them individually on a 1–5 point scoring system, with 5 being the best. After tallying the scores, medals were awarded based on the judges’ impressions.
