Purity Vodka, which was created by Master Blender Thomas Kuuttanen, has launched and is now available (for those aged 21+) in New Jersey. Purity Vodka is distilled 34 times using a specially designed still made of copper and gold. In 2012, the brand won in multiple categories during the Vodka Masters Awards, sweeping the overall vodka category and taking the top title of Grand Vodka Master and making them the first to win the title two years in a row.

Locally in Bergen County, Purity Vodka is being served at Grand Cru Wine Bar in Englewood.
