History

Vodka 14 began as an idea between Matthew Barris and Jonathan Weiss. The two NYU graduates decided that Colorado needed a small-batch vodka, similar to the micro-brewed beers popular in the state. As a result, Matthew and his father Mitch started Altitude Spirits and began producing Vodka 14. [ [http://www.coloradodaily.com/articles/2005/12/04/mix_sections/food_and_drink/food1.txt Colorado Daily News ] ] The Vodka is currently available throughout Colorado and online.

Colorado

Since Vodka 14 is a small batch vodka from Colorado, much of the packaging and marketing makes reference to the state. For example, the bottle art is a picture of Wilson Peak. The 14 is a reference to the fact that Colorado's tallest mountains stand 14,000 feet above sea level.
