This is the story about not giving up and not giving a fxck what others think. Fed up with all that is mass-produced for the masses, we set out to do vodka like vodka’s never been done before. Our way. So we rolled up our sleeves and handcrafted our very first batch out of an ex-laundromat in the Pacific Northwest. A true original vodka made with nothing more than determination, diligence and a whole lotta “Damn, this better work.” We’re proud to say Blood x Sweat x Tears Vodka™ is spirit like no other. Because it captures ours. And the more hard work we put into it, the more our hard work comes easy. Meet the team behind Blood x Sweat x Tears below.
Blood x Sweat x Tears Vodka™ wouldn’t exist if not for Ben’s curiosity, creativity, and unrelenting determination. A self-taught distiller, music lover, and proud papa to Mr. Pickles, he’s excited to share his unique vodka with fellow misfits.
A rescue pit with a huge heart, Mr. Pickles has been at Ben’s side throughout the entire process of creating Blood x Sweat x Tears Vodka™. If you stop by the BST tasting room, you’re sure to cross paths with our faithful shop dog.
Umberto helmed marketing at some of the world’s largest liquor brands. Then one day, he got tired and walked out. The Blood x Sweat x Tears Vodka™ brand is his brainchild. It’s everything corporate vodka isn’t for a reason.
To fully appreciate how we make our vodka, you must first understand why we make it: To capture the true independent spirit of likeminded souls everywhere. So, every ingredient, like our locally sourced Pacific Northwest wheat, is thoughtfully scrutinized. Every drop, painstakingly cared fo inside the walls of our small-ass facility in Eugene, Oregon. The result? A slow distilled, freeze-filtered artisan vodka with a smooth finish and more than a hint of fxck you to The Man.
