The standard

Two centuries of craft. One uncompromising standard.

Gold Standard is the benchmark by which we judge every batch: a spirit so clean and smooth it speaks for itself.

The recipe traces back to 1812 and the great Russian vodka houses, where wheat, water and patience were everything. We kept that discipline and moved it to a modern plant in San Salvador, closer to the bars, shops and importers we serve across the Americas.

  • Spirit from carefully selected winter wheat
  • Soft, purified water for a rounded mouthfeel
  • Multi-stage filtration for an ultra-clean finish
  • Distilled, bottled and quality-checked in one plant
