Sweet Blend Vodka

Delta Dirt Distillery

The world of craft spirits has exploded in recent years, which can make shopping for the perfect bottle for your favorite liquor connoisseur feel like an impossible endeavor. Like a fine wine made by a centuries-old estate, the story behind a spirit is just as important as its taste for many. Delta Dirt Distillery makes award-winning products and possesses one of the most quintessentially American stories imaginable.

Founded by Harvey and Donna Williams in 2017, Delta Dirt is a family-owned business that has been built on the Williams family’s deep roots in the Arkansas Delta. The distillery’s flagship spirit, Sweet Blend Vodka, is crafted with sweet potatoes grown on the original 86 acres that Harvey’s ancestors first sharecropped in the late 1800s. The sweet potato recipe is not only an ode to the family’s history, but it provides the flavor that won the brand a coveted Double Gold medal at the most recent San Francisco World Spirits Competition — the largest spirits judging competition in the world.
