Spearhead Spirits Vusa Vodka Review

Hailing from South Africa, this vodka is the first we've come across that's distilled exclusively from fresh sugar cane (all of which is sourced within a 50-mile radius of the distillery). Its profile carries an earthy and sweet character, reminiscent of gin botanicals. The palate delivers rich depth of flavor, while the finish is delicately spiced. This is a truly distinctive spirit.
