Celebrating National Vodka Day with Blackleaf Organic Vodka: The World’s First Black-Owned Organic Vodka
On October 4th, vodka enthusiasts everywhere celebrate National Vodka Day, a day dedicated to appreciating one of the world’s most popular spirits. Since 2009, this occasion has been marked across the United States, spotlighting the finest vodka brands. Today, we’re paying tribute to a standout brand that is revolutionizing the industry—Blackleaf Organic Vodka, the world’s first Black-owned organic vodka.
Founded by Kevin Larkai and Monté Burrow, Blackleaf Organic Vodka is not just about creating a premium drink; it’s about crafting a high-quality, eco-friendly experience. As the first French organic vodka in the U.S., Blackleaf is made from 100% organic French wheat and distilled five times. This meticulous process ensures that every sip delivers an ultra-smooth taste, perfect for both seasoned vodka drinkers and those seeking something new and refined.
A Vodka of Distinction
Blackleaf Organic Vodka has earned prestigious accolades from around the globe, solidifying its place among the best. The brand took home a Double Gold Medal at the prestigious San Francisco World Spirits Competition, as well as at the New York Wine & Spirits Competition and the Singapore World Spirits Tasting Competition this year, marking two consecutive years of Double Gold wins at all three events. These awards highlight Blackleaf’s dedication to quality, taste, and sustainability.
According to the co-founders, the mission of Blackleaf is simple: to create a great-tasting experience. Their passion for premium vodka and their commitment to using organic ingredients set them apart in an industry that often prioritizes mass production over quality. “We’re proud to deliver on this promise and be recognized by discerning taste buds,” they affirm.
A Taste Like No Other
What makes Blackleaf stand out beyond its organic certification is its unique flavor profile. Tasting notes describe a satiny mouthfeel, with sophisticated hints of peppercorn, nut, and spiced pear. The vodka starts sweet and finishes with a silky smoothness that leaves a lasting impression. Whether enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or mixed into a cocktail, Blackleaf Organic Vodka offers a luxurious experience that elevates any occasion.
A Brand with a Purpose
More than just a spirit, Blackleaf represents a step forward in both diversity and sustainability in the spirits industry. As a Black-owned brand, it continues to pave the way for inclusivity, while its commitment to organic production shows a dedication to environmental consciousness.
As we celebrate National Vodka Day, there’s no better time to raise a glass to Blackleaf Organic Vodka—a trailblazer in the world of spirits, blending taste, tradition, and innovation.
Happy National Vodka Day!
