  Doghouse Baller Vodka 70 cl 40%

  Item no.: 222278654231503445-

  In an industrial estate in Battersea sits a distillery that has turned the usual idea of vodka upside down. It does not buy spirit in and dilute it. It buys wheat, ferments it on site and then refuses to filter what comes out.

  Expert description

  Baller Vodka is an English Vodka from Doghouse Distillery in Battersea, London, distilled from scratch from English wheat, unfiltered and bottled at 40%.

  Doghouse opened in Battersea in 2016 and calls itself the only distillery in London making its own base spirit from grain to bottle across several categories. That is rarer than you might think. Most gin producers worldwide, and a fair share of vodka producers, buy neutral spirit in and work on from there.

  The wheat is English, and the house controls the whole road from wash to bottling. The decisive choice arrives at the end: Baller is not filtered. Filtration would pull the grain character out, and instead the wheat is allowed to stay in the glass as a soft biscuit sweetness with a spiced glint.

  The names and labels belong to the same story. The house range is built around music genres, and the labels are drawn by artists rather than design agencies. Baller carries a double-sided label by a street artist, so the bottle works whichever way round it stands on the back bar.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Mild and cereal-led. Fresh wheat bread and a touch of dried coconut, with no sharp alcohol edge.

  Palate

  Soft and full. Vanilla biscuit fills the middle, with a suggestion of clove and white pepper behind it.

  Finish

  Medium and smooth. The grain sweetness drops away calmly and leaves a round mouthfeel behind.
