Good Liquorworks Vodka New York, USA

Good Vodka is a sustainable spirit made from discarded coffee fruit. It is distilled at Finger Lakes Distilling in upstate New York and each bottle lists where and when the coffee fruit was harvested. Good Vodka is a smooth, flavorful spirit that is perfect for cocktails or sipping neat.

Additional Info:

Farmers pluck the ripe, red cherries from plants, then bring them in sacks to a central mill to remove the pulp from the bean. We’re going to guess you’re already well-acquainted with the bean.

The bean is preserved, but the skin and pulp of the fruit are typically discarded. Some of it is used as fertilizer; a lot of it gets washed downhill into rivers. More than 15 million tons are wasted each year.

We visited coffee farms all over Central and South America before settling on the Caldas region of Colombia for our first bottling. We work directly with the Colombian Coffee Federation to compensate farmers for their fruit waste.

We concentrate the fruit to lower its weight, then import it by ship to the United States. It finishes its journey from farm to vodka in a distillery in upstate New York.

Making alcohol from byproducts is better for everyone.
