TOPO Disitillery: Chapel Hill North Carolina


Certified Organic


TOPO Organic Vodka...$26.99

F. Paul Pacult's
Spirits Journal: Five Stars, Highest Recommendation

"Clear as rainwater. I favorably respond to the toasty, grainy smell of wheat snack crackers that greets you after the pour... Entry is sturdy, moderately viscous, cereal dry yet with a beany bittersweet aspect thatís very charming; mid palate is long, significantly sweeter than the entry, creamy in texture and vanilla-like. It is rare that I come across an unflavored grain-based vodka with as much layering, depth of flavor, character and ribbony texture. Tasty enough to quaff neat and slightly chilled."




TOPO Organic Piedmont Gin...$25.99
F. Paul Pacult's Spirits Journal: Four Stars, Highly Recommended

Cocktail Enthusiast:
"TOPO Piedmont Gin is really interesting on the nose. The juniper is there, but itís subtle. More prominent are some soft, sweet vanilla aromas, plus some fruit, cardamom and a bit of mint. Drink up and you'll get more cardamom, some cucumber and plenty of citrus...This is an easy-drinking gin. Especially at 92 proof...And one thing we like the best: its base spirit, that soft winter wheat, is never overpowered. The sweetness of the wheat shines through to mingle with the botanicals."




TOPO Organic Carolina Moonshine Whiskey....$21.99

Tasting Panel Magazine:
"Fudge and clay soothe on the first whiff, evolving to an earthy vanilla bean note. A clean, pure sensation is buoyed by the lightweight texture and peppered fudge in the mouth. The taste lingers, a generous spread of its wonderfully sweet character."

Publishers Pick, 92 points
