Product Description

Gray Whale Vodka: Small-Batch California Vodka from Grain and Grapes, with No Additives

Gray Whale Vodka is the first vodka from Gray Whale Spirits Co., the ocean-conservation brand behind Gray Whale Gin, which takes its name from the gray whale’s migration along the Pacific coast. It’s a small-batch vodka distilled in California from 90% grain and 10% grapes, bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) with no additives and no added sugar. It’s also gluten-free. The brand describes a silky, clean, balanced vodka with a touch of sweetness and a smooth finish.

Every bottle supports ocean conservation, through the brand’s partnerships with the Surfrider Foundation and 1% for the Planet. It launched in April 2026, and the bottle carries the brand’s whale-etched design.
