Stateside Vodka Review
Stateside Vodka makes a compelling case for why small-batch, American-made spirits are worth seeking out. From the slick bottle design to the approachable yet refined flavor profile, this is a vodka that sits comfortably in a cocktail shaker or on its own over ice. My first sip revealed a clean, almost creamy texture with enough personality to lift mixed drinks without overpowering them — exactly what you want from a premium craft vodka.
The brand’s origin story feels authentic: Stateside was founded in 2015 in Philadelphia’s Fishtown neighborhood by two sets of brothers who set out to create a truly American craft vodka. That local, hands-on beginning comes through in both the branding and the attention to production detail. The distillery roots and community focus are evident across the site and product messaging.

What sets Stateside apart technically is their production approach. The vodka is made from 100% U.S. corn and is distilled seven times, then run through a freeze-filtration system that chills the spirit to sub-zero temperatures to remove impurities. The result is a velvety mouthfeel and a remarkably smooth finish that doesn’t rely on masking flavors with sugar or heavy additives. Those who appreciate a neutral-but-nicely-rounded vodka will find this one fits the bill. (statesidevodka.com)
In cocktails, Stateside is versatile. The clean backbone complements citrus-forward drinks like mules and martinis while also taking on bolder flavor combinations — salted caramel, apple cider, and cinnamon-forward recipes are examples promoted on the brand site, demonstrating the vodka’s adaptability across seasonal and classic serves. If you’re building a home bar, this bottle is an excellent base spirit for both simple two-ingredient drinks and more creative craft cocktails. (statesidevodka.com)
The brand has also earned recognition in competitions, with multiple awards listed on their site. These accolades — including double golds and distinctions like “Best Domestic Vodka” and regional honors — reinforce the quality-first narrative and suggest that Stateside is being taken seriously by judges and peers in the spirits world. For consumers, awards like these are a helpful shorthand when deciding whether to try a new label. (statesidevodka.com)
Beyond the bottle, Stateside presents itself as a neighborhood destination: their distillery and bar in Philadelphia invite visits, and the site provides store locators and ordering options depending on your state. They also keep an active social presence and share cocktail recipes, which makes the brand approachable for both casual drinkers and cocktail enthusiasts looking to experiment. (statesidevodka.com)
Overall, Stateside Vodka is a winner for anyone who values craft production, American ingredients, and a clean, mixable spirit. It’s a reliable pour for parties and quiet evenings alike — smooth enough to sip, neutral enough to let mixers shine. If you’re curious about American craft vodka beyond the usual suspects, Stateside is worth a spot on your shelf.
