The story of Titos Handmade Vodka

Bert "Tito" Beveridge began infusing vodka for friends in 1992, and by 1994 he was set on opening a legal distillery in Texas. Investors kept turning him down, so he put it on credit cards and taught himself to distil. In 1995 he got the permits to become the first legal, operating distillery in the state, built on 12 acres in rural southeast Austin and named Mockingbird Distillery. The first case of Tito's Handmade Vodka sold in 1997.

The spirit is made from corn. The team tested several bases before settling on it for a smooth, crisp finish. It is made in pot stills, with methods the brand says were inspired by single malt scotch and French cognac, which is not how most vodka is made. Fifth Generation, the company behind it, picked up a Double Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2001, only a few years after that first case went out the door.

Because it is clean and smooth rather than sharp, it is an easy vodka to mix with. It suits a Moscow mule or a Bloody Mary, and it is just as good with soda and a wedge of lime when you want something plain. Served cold in a short glass with a twist of lemon, it is also easy to sip on its own.
