Both New Amsterdam gin and vodka are made with grain, and are distilled five times (meaning you don’t have to go looking for cereal notes on the nose or lingering, rounded sweetness on the mouthfeel). The recent New Amsterdam 100 Proof Vodka is made with corn, giving it a mild moonshine vibe but in sum doing little for the final flavor, as vodka is intentionally stripped of oils and congeners (molecules that would impart distinctive flavor).
