Black Cow Vodka is the world’s first pure milk, crystal clear premium vodka which has been made purely from the milk of grass grazed cows in Dorset, England. It is a super premium vodka, distilled from the whey of milk and treated to a secret blending process created by dairy farmer Jason Barber. His inspiration came from a desire to diversify the produce from his 250 strong dairy herd and his personal interest in vodka.
Black Cow Vodka is available from: blackcow.co.uk, Marks & Spencer, Sainsbury’s, 31Dover.com and good independent retailers. RRP from £28.00.
