G'day to you! Wonderful to see you. Help yourself to a mugga and a virtual pastry, why don't'cha? Say... did you have your milk today?
Jason Barber, a farmer from Dorset, England, has spent three years
creating the world’s first milk vodka. Now, his Black Cow label is the
poison of choice for celebrities like Elizabeth Hurley and James Bond
star Daniel Craig.
47-year-old Jason Barber, a sixth generation farmer, got the idea for
his pure cow milk vodka after watching a TV documentary on Tuva, a
small Siberian republic where people make vodka from yak milk. Intrigued
by the idea, he set out to make his own, from the milk of the 250 cows
on his farm in Beaminster, Dorset. It took him three long years to
perfect the process, but the final result is nothing short of
impressive, according to food and drink experts.
Barber starts out by
separating the milk into curds and whey. He uses the former to make
cheese, while the latter is fermented into beer, using special yeast, to
convert the sugar into alcohol. After being distilled, the milk beer
goes through a special blending process. The resulting vodka is
triple-filtered and hand-bottled. Made from fresh whole milk Black Cow
vodka is apparently an exceptionally smooth drink with a distinct creamy
character.
Hey...how about Vodka Cheese? Vodka yogurt? Vodka creamcheese? Vodka ice cream? Now you're talking! In fact, any recipe that calls for milk...
See ya, eh! I'm going out to go buy a cow!
