Production & Heritage

New Amsterdam Vodka is produced by E. & J. Gallo Winery, the California-based wine and spirits company founded in 1933 by Ernest and Julio Gallo. The base spirit is made from grains sourced from America's heartland, then put through a five-times distillation process — more intensive than the triple distillation common among many competitors. The distillate undergoes triple filtration before peach flavoring is introduced, resulting in a clean foundation that lets the fruit character come through without heavy sweetness.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Ripe, juicy peach dominates the nose immediately, followed by subtle orange blossom and a light vanilla undertone. The overall impression is bright and inviting without artificial sharpness.

Taste: The entry is smooth and gently sweet, with vibrant peach flavor spreading across the mid-palate. A creamy, silky texture develops as hints of vanilla and soft citrus emerge. The sweetness stays balanced rather than cloying, supported by the clean grain base.

Finish: Short to medium in length, the finish is soft and refreshing with lingering stone-fruit sweetness. A faint floral note trails off cleanly, leaving little burn thanks to the lower 35% ABV.

How to Drink New Amsterdam Peach

This vodka works well chilled and served over ice, where its peach character reads clearly without needing much embellishment. It also shines in cocktails where fruit-forward flavors are welcome. A Peach Bellini benefits from its natural stone-fruit intensity paired with prosecco. A Fuzzy Navel gains depth when this replaces plain vodka alongside orange juice and peach schnapps. A Peach Mule — built with ginger beer and lime — lets the ginger spice play against the soft peach and vanilla notes.

Best For

• Building a home cocktail bar focused on fruit-forward mixed drinks
• Summer gatherings where batch cocktails and punches are the centerpiece
• Introducing friends to flavored vodka without overwhelming sweetness
• Mixing approachable brunch cocktails like Bellinis or spritzers

Why New Amsterdam Peach?

The five-times distillation and triple-filtration process gives this vodka a cleaner base than many flavored competitors at similar price points, allowing the peach flavor to read as fruit rather than syrup. Its Gold Medal from the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and 91-point rating from The Tasting Panel back up that production approach with critical recognition. At 35% ABV, it sits slightly below standard vodka strength, which reduces harshness and makes it immediately mixable without heavy dilution. For anyone building a versatile flavored vodka collection without a premium spend, this expression consistently delivers on both purity and fruit authenticity.
