Valentine Vodka (MLCC #5671)
Valentine's Day Gift Pack (MLCC #71675)

As Detroit’s first micro distilled spirit since
Prohibition, Valentine Vodka is handcrafted from a proprietary blend
of Midwestern grains. Meticulous care goes into every bottle.
We are devoted to making only the finest spirits in small,
handcrafted batches, focusing on quality rather than quantity. We
think you’ll agree Valentine Vodka is one of the smoothest,
easiest drinking vodkas in the world.
We are excited to bring
back a proud tradition the city of Detroit hasn’t seen in over
70 years. Few know about the pivotal role that Detroit played in the
history of distilled alcohol. The ‘Noble Experiment’ of
Prohibition signed into law in 1919, changed the landscape of Detroit
for the next 20 years. Literally overnight, Detroit became a mecca of
illicit liquor. The city eventually would become the Northeast’s
largest supplier of illicit moonshine. Even Al Capone bought most of
the liquor for his multi-billion dollar bootlegging industry from the
gangs that ran Detroit bootlegging. But it was the way in which
Detroiters smuggled the liquor into the country that made it unique.
With its close proximity to Canada, where liquor was still legal,
Detroiters devised unique and innovative ways to bootleg liquor. The
moonshine was smuggled in the holds of fishing boats, airplanes, and
even towed underwater in barrels attached to cable systems.
Bootleggers became even so brazen as to build entire pipelines from
Canadian distilleries to Detroit bottlers. This brazen flouting of
the law saw Detroit become alive with speakeasies and blind pigs.
Even Detroit’s most prominent citizens imbibed illicit liquor
in the city’s underground clubs. When a speakeasy on Mack and
Maxwell was busted by officials, not only was the Mayor of Detroit
hauled away in handcuffs, but also the Chief of Police.
So
the next time you’re out on the town, find the bar that has no
sign, that isn’t in any tourist books, and may take a secret
knock to get in. Valentine Vodka will be waiting for you behind the
bar; and maybe, Valentine Belle will be waiting for you in front of
the bar.
I hope you enjoy handcrafted Valentine Vodka as
much as I enjoyed making it.
Cheers!
