ALB Vodka
Awarded ‘Spirit Of The Year’, ‘Spirit Of The Year – United States of America’ and ‘Vodka Of The Year’ at the 2025 USA Spirits Ratings, ALB Vodka is produced by a small group of dedicated professionals who have been crafting grain-to-glass vodka for more than a decade. Equally diligent–without filigree or fanfare–this corn-based, gluten-free neutral spirit uses fine, Upstate New York water and quadruple charcoal filtration. The result is a balanced vodka that excels at versatility. ALB Vodka is led by John Curtin, Co-founder of the brand.
While overall alcohol market trends have softened, ALB Vodka continues to grow. One key contributor to that growth has been ALB’s national inflight partnership with JetBlue, which placed the vodka on all domestic and international flights. The program has significantly increased visibility and brand trial, showing how targeted partnerships with like-minded brands can scale consumer reach. Alongside this, the brand has quietly and steadily expanded retail and on-premise availability across the country, strengthening its channel presence without compromising on quality or pricing.

Since launch, ALB Vodka has remained focused on a straightforward brand proposition: a high-quality, reasonably priced vodka made in New York. The brand does not rely on buzzwords-instead, it has committed to consistent execution, value, and authenticity. That philosophy also extends to its home base of Albany, where ALB continues to support small businesses, sponsor local events, and contribute to community-focused initiatives that reinforce its roots.
Today, ALB Vodka is sold in spirits and liquor shops across the United States of America, and can be found in some of the country’s leading Michelin Star restaurants, private membership clubs, sports arenas, theaters, bars, hotels and nightclubs.
