Rye Harbor Vodka

Unflavored Vodka — USA

Reviewed May 11, 2021 (edited June 4, 2025)
3.5
3.5 out of 5 stars
I'm honestly extremely impressed with this corn vodka. I can't find much about it online aside from it appears it was initially listed as being sourced from New Hampshire but later having it's government listings as being based in California. How bizarre. But none of these details matter when the product is this good. It has an incredibly approachable smell of sweet corn basking in just the faintest trace of ethanol. It doesn't sting the nose with ethanol fumes nor does it have a particularly "dusty grain" nose. Granted there isn't much complexity going on here but this may just be the nicest smelling corn based vodka I've had the pleasure of smelling. There's even a hint of butteriness that rounds out the proceedings quite nicely. It smells unpretentious and approachable without losing sight of its neutrality. Best of all, this vodka has an amazing sweet corn taste that persists throughout the entire palate. You don't get burned by any kind of bitterness or intrusive ethanol unpleasantness. It's just the sweetness of corn vodka with barely any hints of its downsides. This is the definition of straightforward but when it's so nicely sweet it almost reminds me of sweet corn on the cob, who can complain? I still think wheat vodka is superior but from now on Rye Harbor Vodka will be my go to corn vodka for when I feel a cocktail needs a more pronounced sweetness as well as my favorite shot vodka. Seriously this stuff is smooth with minimal burn. On that note the texture is somewhat oily when compared to other corn based vodkas. Think Tito's for a frame of reference.

    Hi, do you still have any of these mini Rye Harbor Bottles? If so I would be willing to purchase, even if they are empty.
