<\/b> Have you ever considered how your drink of choice impacts the planet? With one 750 ml bottle of alcohol producing about 2.95 kg of carbon dioxide, maybe now\u2019s the time to start. Globally, there\u2019s a sweeping movement, with industry leaders like Belvedere Vodka advocating to leave a lighter touch on the Earth. Made with Nature, the brand is crafted from Polska rye, water and fire \u2013 and nothing else. The whole process is inspired by sustainable practices, with Belvedere committing to cut its carbon emissions by 80% by the end of this year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Made with Nature<\/span><\/h4>\n

Patrick Leslie, Portfolio Manager of Belvedere Vodka, says, \u201cWe\u2019re a brand built on a simple philosophy \u2013 Made with Nature.<\/i> Our expertise comes from Poland\u2019s 600-year vodka making legacy. A big part of that is passion and respect for the land. Our rye is a superior grain with ancient roots. It is impeccably grown, in some of the world\u2019s most special locations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Belvedere Lake Bart\u0119\u017cek<\/i><\/b> <\/i>is crafted from rye grown on the glimmering shores of a glacial lake. Long snowy winters help to create a delicate vodka with hints of spearmint and toasted nuts.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe know that protecting our Polska rye for future generations is imperative for our business. So, we\u2019re committed to helping our farmer use sustainable farming practices. We\u2019re also dedicated to cutting our own emissions. We are currently establishing a way to turn our waste products into biogas to power our 111-year-old distillery and surrounding areas,\u201d says Patrick Leslie, Portfolio Manager of Belvedere Vodka.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From 2012\u20132017 the brand has cut CO2 emissions by 42%. With a grant from the European Commission, its completion will reduce CO2 emissions by 80% by 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pure and Simple\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

As well as choosing drinks made by environmentally conscious manufacturers, people are also increasingly aware of the purity of the products they\u2019re feeding their bodies. Patrick adds, \u201cWe know that individuals are seeking alcohols that don\u2019t have any additives or sugar. We are proud that our spirits are made with the very best the land has to offer. Nothing else. We take simple ingredients and transform them into extraordinary vodka. The transition has begun to be 100% organic-certified, including our flagship Belvedere pure, from 2023. We suggest a fresh, simple approach to cocktails that carries this philosophy further.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
