Ketel One

Ketel One is a premium vodka brand from the Netherlands. The Nolet Distillery, a family business over 325 years old, makes it. The Nolet family has been distilling since 1691 when Joannes Nolet opened his distillery in Schiedam.

The name "Ketel One" comes from their original coal-fired copper pot still, Distilleerketel #1. This still has been key in making their vodka smooth. Ketel One is made through a careful distillation process. This includes both traditional pot still craft and modern methods. Every batch is tested by a Nolet family member to ensure quality.
