From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mr. van de Velde founded Luctor International in 1982 to import beer from the Netherlands, his native country. In 1989, Mr. van de Velde started importing Ketel One Vodka.
In January 2000 Vincent Van Gogh Vodka was released and received a 94 rating from Wine Enthusiast. The Spirit Journal gave Vincent Van Gogh Vodka a 5-Star rating, their highest recommendation.
Van Gogh Vodka is handcrafted in small batches using grains, which is a combination of mainly wheat and a little corn and barley. The vodka is distilled twice in column stills and then a third time in a traditional potstill to produce a vodka of the highest refinement. The copper potstill takes “the bite” out of the alcohol, making the vodka very smooth.
