Our/Vodka opens the first distillery in Manhattan since Prohibition

Article 17/05/2018

Our/New York is the sixth member of Our/Vodka family which has already successfully launched in Berlin, Amsterdam, London, Detroit, and Los Angeles.

Located at 151 West 26th Street in the heart of Manhattan between Sixth and Seventh Avenues, the Our/New York distillery will also feature a combined public tasting room, bar and retail shop. The space will serve as a gallery and event space. Visitors will be welcome to stop by the distillery for drinks, tours and tastings starting May 25th 2018.

Our/New York will be managed by local skate wear entrepreneur and artist Dave Ortiz ' a co-founder of DQM (Dave's Quality Meats). Growing up in East New York in the 70s and 80s, Dave Ortiz was swept up in the graffiti and skate culture zeitgeist before developing parallel careers in the skate wear industry while simultaneously pursuing fine art. 

He says of the venture, "When Our/Vodka approached me about Our/New York, it sounded too good to be true at first, but Our/Vodka isn't based on superficial brand ideas; it's based on real people combined with real expertise and I was immediately attracted by the opportunity to grow a brand that New Yorkers can really identify with."

Each city gives Our/Vodka its unique expression, name and character. While each vodka is made according to the same global recipe, ingredients are sourced locally without compromising quality. Our/New York is a corn-based super-premium vodka and is blended using New York City drinking water for a vodka that is smooth and fresh with a slight grain and fruity note.
