NOT VODKA, VESPER

THE WORLD’S MOST UNIQUE VODKA

BORN IN FIRE – DISTILLED IN LEGACY

In the hills above Fougerolles, France, in a village where cherry trees outnumber cafés, Massenez Distillers have been shaping spirits since 1864. There, the Peureux and Baud families perfected the art of Eau de Vie: pure distillation, honest fruit, nothing added. No shortcuts. Today, the same copper stills still run and from one of them, VESPER is born. Not for nostalgia, but for alchemy. Each drop carries the weight of fire, metal, and over 150 years of memory yielding a vodka no modern process can imitate.

WHERE PURITY MEETS COMPLEXITY

A vodka crafted with spring water from the Vosges mountains, Brie Champagne wheat grown in the same limestone soils as Champagne grapes, and a final distillation that includes French wine grapes, a quiet tribute to the liqueur masters who came before us. The result is round, precise, and alive. The nose is clean and restrained, soft florals, grape blossom, a hint of alpine air.

NOT VODKA, VESPER

No additives. No over-filtering. No gimmicks. Just the finest ingredients and over 150 years of distillation heritage brought together in small batches, by hand, in the original copper stills of Fougerolles. VESPER is a vodka for the connoisseur. Structured, elegant, and alive in the glass. Built for those who know the difference. A vodka with nothing to hide and everything to say.
