Cathead Distillery Releases New Bitter Orange Flavored Vodka



Mississippi-based distillery officially unveils newest addition to its vodka portfolio

Cathead Distillery, Mississippi’s first and oldest legal distillery, just announced the addition of their newest flavored Cathead Vodka, the first in eight years. Joining the brand’s iconic lineup, including the only honeysuckle and pecan flavored vodkas on the market, is Cathead Bitter Orange Vodka.

The new vodka, similar to its predecessors, was created to provide a flavor-forward foundation for cocktails or as a substitute in classic recipes for an elevated, dynamic twist. Made from all natural bitter orange and satsuma extracts, Cathead Bitter Orange presents orange blossoms on the nose with hints of vanilla. On the palate, subtle notes of ripe satsumas are balanced by a finish of freshly peeled bitter orange.

“Inspired by our Gulf roots, we’re proud to introduce Cathead Bitter Orange,” said Richard Patrick, Co-Founder of Cathead Distillery. “We’re selfishly excited about it… it’s just so delicious and versatile—made to elevate any simple cocktails, such as tonic- and soda-based recipes.”

Coming in at 70 proof (35% ABV), Cathead Bitter Orange has no artificial flavors, no added sugars, and is only 85 calories or less per serving.

The citrus flavored vodka is now available nationwide for about $19.99 (750mL) and $26.99 (1L) at select spirit retailers and will be available for purchase online in the near future.
