Chase Vodka
From the makers of Tyrrell’s comes Chase Vodka! Perhaps wondering what to do with an excess of potatoes one day they set about cooking it up into alcohol and thank goodness they did!
It is smooth to the point of being creamy and many purport that it can be drunk either cold or at room temperature, which the same cannot be said of for many mainstream vodka brands.
Chase is made on a farm in Herefordshire with potatoes that are grown and harvested in the fields of the farm itself. The whole vodka making process takes place on site; picking, fermenting, distilling and bottling. First created in 2008, in 2010 Chase won best vodka in the world, beating 249 other vodka producers, quite an accolade!
Taste:
Velvety smooth without the harsh burn that you often get with popular brands of vodka. Keep this one hidden at parties! You don’t want it being drowned in lukewarm coke and guzzled by unappreciative guests! An amazing vodka to use in a martini.
Flavours:
Of all things there is a marmalade flavour. Showing just how British this brand truly is. This has to at least be sampled once even if it is a gimmick, it’s one that works!
Not to be out done on the multitude of flavours and clever branding and marketing opportunities Chase has a whole range of cleverly named varieties available. I must say, I want to try them all! Here are the vodka based spirits:
- Chase Original Vodka
- Chase English Oak Smoked Vodka
- Chase Marmalade Vodka
- Naked Chase Apple Vodka
- Chase Rhubarb Vodka
- Chase Fresh Fruit Liqueurs

Flirtini

Lab Soho
Lab Soho is a lively, friendly cocktail bar with an edge of sticky about the place like it needs a good clean. You could argue that this adds to the character and appeal depending on what you look for in a bar. The cocktail range is vast and they taste fairly decent too but be prepared to wait if it’s busy and potentially then be faced with a glass full of crushed ice.

How to Make Vodka
Vodka is a neutral spirit that tends not to have a distinctive flavour or taste in its untampered form. Vodka is generally not aged and can be made using a range of accessible materials and ingredients such as potatoes, grains, sugars, fruit and most things that are capable of being fermented. This makes it a spirit that is easy to produce in a relatively short space of time.
