Product details
Chase Pure Plain Vodka is an English potato vodka from Chase Distillery in Herefordshire, bottled at 40% ABV in a 70cl bottle. Chase was founded by William Chase, the farmer behind Tyrrells crisps, and the spirit is distilled from potatoes rather than grain. That base gives a creamy, slightly earthy texture with real weight in the mouth. It is a versatile choice for drinkers who like a fuller vodka, holding its own in a Martini or a Bloody Mary as well as served ice-cold on its own.
Chase Vodka tasting notes
- Nose: Creamy, with a hint of buttered potato, vanilla and a faint citrus note.
- Palate: Full and velvety, with soft earthiness, light sweetness and white pepper.
- Finish: Long and rounded, finishing clean and slightly creamy.
How to drink Chase Vodka
Keep a bottle in the freezer for neat pours in small chilled glasses, where the creamy texture really shows. Smoked salmon, potato rösti with soured cream and salt-cured fish all suit its earthy depth, and a plate of pickled herring works well too. It is a sound choice for a dinner party aperitif or a weekend brunch.
Chase Vodka Martini and other classics
- Chase Vodka Martini: stir 60 ml with 10 ml dry vermouth over ice, strain into a chilled glass and add a lemon twist or an olive.
- Chase Vodka Bloody Mary: stir 50 ml with 120 ml tomato juice, 10 ml lemon juice, 3 dashes of Worcestershire sauce, a pinch of celery salt and black pepper over ice in a tall glass.
How it compares
Chase Rhubarb Vodka uses this spirit as its base and adds slow-cooked rhubarb for a sweet-sour, pink drink; Pure Plain is the dry, unflavoured original. Compared with Au Original Plain Vodka, which is lighter and more citrusy, Chase has a fuller, creamier body that carries savoury cocktails with ease.
Good to know
A bottle of English potato vodka with a well-known founder story makes a good present for a home cocktail maker. Wodka Company ships Chase Pure Plain Vodka 70cl across the UK from its base in London.
