The seven-times distilled Peak 7, made at Mile High Distillery, comes onto the scene on the heels of a medal-winning performance at the 2013 Denver International Spirits Contest March 2-3. Twelve prominent spirits professionals judged the double-blind tasting, and Peak 7 Vodka was awarded a bronze for best vodka.
“We are Colorado people who want to make a Vodka that reflects the culture and vibrancy of Denver and the Rocky Mountains,” said Peak 7 co-founder Dave Collier, “We think Colorado’s the best place on Earth you can live, and the best place on earth to make great vodka.”
Peak 7 has gained distinction among its peers with its development of an artfully-crafted, proprietary blend of corn and wheat that achieves a unique balance of smoothness and taste. It is currently available at select locations throughout the Front Range including Mondo Vino, The Austin’s American Grill restaurants, The Moot House, and Enzio’s Italian Kitchen. Peak 7 has partnered with Elysium to distribute Peak 7 to the many fine establishments that are embracing the micro-distillery movement in Colorado.
“All things being equal, there are a lot of people who would rather buy locally-made spirits,” Peak 7 co-founder Desi Lopez said. “We’re delivering that high-end quality that people have come to expect from some of the major European brands, but we’re doing it with vodka made right here in our home city.”
