At the crossroads of Dutch precision and a refined sense of restraint, Moa - Vodka - 40°C reveals an aesthetic of transparency. Produced in small batches in Schiedam, a historic distillation center, this premium vodka combines impeccable technique with a distinctive aromatic profile. Its grain base, triple-distilled to achieve crystalline balance, welcomes a finely tuned botanical trio of fresh ginger, bergamot and makrut leaves, with no added sugars or artificial flavors. The result is a clear line, subtle energy and a satin texture that captures light and returns it as pure sensation. For the spirits connoisseur, it promises a rare moment, between perfectly channelled intensity and radiant freshness, equally at ease neat and lightly chilled or at the heart of minimalist mixology where every detail matters.

Production and distillation

The fruit of precise know-how, this vodka starts from a carefully selected grain base, then is triple-distilled to ensure exemplary purity and a limpid texture. The aromatic identity relies on fresh natural ingredients—ginger, bergamot and makrut leaves—integrated with restraint to preserve balance and prevent any one character from dominating. Produced in small batches at the Onder de Boompjes distillery in Schiedam, it is born of attentive work where consistency of profile matters more than showiness. No additives, no added sugars, it claims a clean, readable and luminous aesthetic, a modern signature of a vodka designed for the precision of neat service as well as the elegance of classic bar recipes.

Tasting notes

• Appearance : Crystal clear, bright sheen, an almost aquatic glow that announces a clean texture and high purity.
• Nose : A straight, precise initial breath revealing fresh spicy ginger, supported by floral, citrus bergamot. Makrut leaves trace zesty, herbal inflections, evoking verbena and lemongrass.
• Palate : A crisp, silky attack driven by spicy tension and citrus freshness. The mid-palate remains linear and precise, without sweetness, before a delicate, herbal finish—long, mouthwatering and with great aromatic cleanliness.

Serving temperature and tips

Serve between 6 and 8°C in a small tulip glass or a spirit tumbler to preserve aromatic integrity. A quick chill in an ice bucket for a few minutes is enough—avoid prolonged freezing if you want to retain the botanicals' full relief. Neat, it expresses itself with clarity, but it also shines in a precise Vodka Martini or an elegant vodka soda. Store the bottle upright, away from light and temperature fluctuations, and reseal carefully after serving to preserve its clarity.

Food pairings

• Aperitifs : caviar, blinis with light cream, gravlax salmon, creamy tarama, iodized oysters.
• Starters : sea bream or sea bass sashimi, citrus ceviche, scallop carpaccio, crisp vegetables and delicate pickles.
• Main courses : steamed white fish with lemon, roast poultry with ginger, herb risotto, ricotta ravioli with citrus zest.
• Cheeses : fresh goat, salted ricotta, young soft-textured tomme, served with lemon zest and delicate olive oil.
