Chopin Vodka launches USDA Organic Rye Vodka in the United States

New York, NY, July 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Chopin, the world’s first super-premium vodka, launches its first single-ingredient organic vodka in the United States, Chopin Rye Organic. The spirit is made from a traditional rye variety called Dankowskie Ruben, which is 100% certified organic and sourced from a multi-generational operation within 20 miles of the Chopin Vodka Distillery in Poland. Chopin Rye Organic is handcrafted in small batches using traditional distilling techniques and strict requirements for organic processing, and blended with natural spring water from Chopin’s own spring on the property. The spirit then rests for six months to develop its full aroma before being bottled. Chopin Rye Organic will be available online and in select retailers in California, Florida, Texas, Colorado and Washington.

“At the Chopin Distillery, we have always prided ourselves on making single-ingredient vodkas from naturally grown ingredients – without chemicals or pesticides. With Chopin Rye Organic Vodka we have taken this mission one step further. We feel the timing is right for Chopin Rye Organic as it is a natural continuation of our commitment to only using the highest quality ingredients for our customers and the environment, at a moment when consumers are increasingly awakened to what they eat and drink.” —Tad Dorda, founder and CEO of Chopin Vodka

The Chopin team works with an organic farm to grow the organic rye on naturally fertile soil without synthetic chemicals such as man-made pesticides, artificial fertilizers or genetically modified organisms (GMOs). As a result, organic rye has a yield of about half that of regular rye and is 40% more expensive compared to non-organic rye. The farmers closely monitor the fertility of the soil, the optimal sowing time, the best conditions for development and the ideal harvest time, which together guarantee the perfect raw material for the production of Chopin’s Rye Organic.
