About Alphabet Vodka
Alphabet is a small-batch vodka distilled in Seattle’s Georgetown neighborhood, just a short hop south of us here in Kirkland. It is made from 100% non-GMO corn, which makes it naturally gluten free, and it is distilled multiple times for a clean, neutral character. Keeping a local craft name like this on the list is exactly the kind of thing we love to do at a neighborhood spot on the Eastside, pouring something made close to home. When you can find a quality vodka distilled right here in the Seattle area, it feels good to give it a place on the menu and let our guests taste what local producers are doing.
Tasting Notes
Corn-based vodkas tend to drink soft and a touch sweet, and Alphabet is no exception. Expect a smooth, rounded body with a clean finish and very little bite, the sort of vodka that mixes beautifully and is easy to enjoy chilled. It is approachable enough to sip on its own yet neutral enough to disappear into a cocktail.
What to Pair It With
Vodka is bright and endlessly mixable, so it shines alongside fresh, briny bites. From the Sparrow dinner menu, try it with the Fresh Oysters, the Tuna Tartare, or a crisp salad. It also makes a clean martini or a easygoing spritz, and our daily happy hour from 3 to 5 PM takes $3 off well drinks if you want to start there in the 21+ lounge.
