Castle & Key Sacred Spring Vodka
Vodka | 40% ABV (80 Proof) | 750 mL
Process & Profile
Castle & Key Sacred Spring Vodka is distilled in historic Frankfort, Kentucky, using a mash bill identical to the distillery’s bourbon—73% white corn, 10% rye, and 17% malted barley. Distilled on-site with copper column and pot stills, it’s then proofed with limestone-rich spring water from the estate’s iconic “Key” springhouse. The result is a spirit with depth, texture, and regional character.
