The new Grey Goose Altius is a hand-bottled vodka produced in limited quantities. Like the regular Grey Goose vodka, Altius is distilled from soft French winter wheat. But there’s more to Altius. For the first time, it is blended with spring water sourced from some of the highest peaks in the French Alps.

Made with Alpine water

The Alpine water in Grey Goose Altius begins its journey in the clouds above the peaks of Western Europe, winding through crystal-clear rocks into an untouched, exceptionally pure alkaline aquifer. After blending, Grey Goose Altius is filtered at a very low temperature of -24 degrees Celsius, resulting in an ice-smooth taste and a velvety mouthfeel.

On the rocks

The combination of this method, the natural effects of high-altitude temperatures, spring water from the Alps and winter wheat from Picardy creates an exceptionally smooth vodka. It would be a shame to use it to make Gigi Hadid’s famous vodka pasta; Grey Goose Altius is designed to be enjoyed neat, well chilled or on the rocks. And believe me, it does something to you. Good grief. Connoisseurs describe the mouthfeel of Grey Goose Altius as complex, with delicate Alpine minerality, refreshing soft green apple notes and a unique earthy undertone. Yes, let that sink in for a moment.

In da club

Entirely in keeping with its style, the new Grey Goose Altius was launched on the ultimate party island: Ibiza. You can also find it in Europe’s biggest and most luxurious summer hotspots, including Mykonos, Saint-Tropez and Porto Cervo. Later this autumn, Altius will make its debut in London, Paris and the United States. From September, partygoers in the Netherlands will be able to order the superior vodka in da club.

Altius is available in 700 ml and 1.75 litres.
