The company produce many flavoured vodkas in addition to their basic products.

The distillery has been producing the vodka for 133 years in small batches using a variety of grains, a combination consisting mainly of wheat, corn and barley. The vodka is distilled twice in continuous distillation, and the third time in a traditional pot. Copper is also used in the process to remove the hardness of the product.

Distillation

[edit]

The Royal Dirkzwager Distillery has created Van Gogh Vodka for 133 years by handcrafting vodka in small batches using combinations of wheat, corn and barley. The vodka is distilled twice in column stills and then a third time in a traditional pot still to produce a high quality vodka. Copper is used in the process to remove the harshness of the product.
