Handcrafted in small batches and all natural, this award winning vodka is Certified Gluten Free and Kosher. Upstate Vodka Cinnamon is living proof that you can create an outstanding vodka from apples with a cinnamon twist. Grain-based vodka may be cheaper to produce, but for us, quality is what’s important. Every bottle contains 70-80 apples from local New York state farms. Fermented, distilled, and bottled under one roof, Upstate has a unique, light, crisp mouthfeel.
