At Blackwater Distilling, vodka is our passion, right down to the organic ingredients (trust us, it makes a difference). Starting with a base of organic wheat spirit, we round out the rough edges and impart soft vanilla notes and a hint of residual sweetness with spirit from organic sugar cane. Finally, we filter the vodka through a blend of activated carbon selected to retain the unique characteristics of the base spirits while removing any last impurities. The result is vodka so smooth it can be enjoyed neat or on the rocks or used to add a layer of complexity to your favorite cocktail.

Sloop Betty was an historic ship that sailed the Chesapeake Bay. The name appealed to us because of our love of Maryland’s history, as well as her amazing location right on the ocean and Bay. We are committed to protecting the environment, which is why we use the highest quality ingredients and focus on sustainable agriculture.
