Introducing Nonesuch Vodka: A Return to Real Cocktails

Over the years, the world of ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages has exploded. Everywhere you look, there’s a can promising the perfect mix—convenience, flavour, and an easy pour. But at what cost? As RTD prices continue to climb, the experience of crafting a drink to your own taste has been replaced by pre-packaged options.

At Nonesuch, we believe it’s time to bring back the joy of mixing. That’s why we’re proud to introduce Nonesuch Vodka—a clean, smooth spirit designed to put the power of cocktail creation back into your hands.

Why Vodka? Why Now?

We’ve always stood by our ethos: quality over quantity. We don’t release anything unless we believe it meets the high standard our customers expect from us. So, when we decided to create a vodka, it had to be something truly worthy of the Nonesuch name.

The inspiration came from watching the RTD market grow into an expensive, one-size-fits-all space. Most of these pre-mixed drinks are vodka-based, but they remove the creative process—the fun of crafting your own perfect mix. By offering a premium 700ml vodka at just $48, we’re giving drinkers the freedom to return to what we all used to do: mix our own drinks, explore flavours, and make cocktails the way we like them.

Even the world’s most famous secret agent wouldn’t settle for a pre-mixed drink. James Bond’s iconic vodka martini—shaken, not stirred—was never pulled from a can. He understood that a great cocktail starts with a great vodka. So whether you’re feeling like a suave superspy or just want to craft the perfect mix, Nonesuch Vodka is here to help you do it your way.

A Vodka As Pure As Tasmania

True to our philosophy, we didn’t take shortcuts in creating this vodka. We start with a grape base spirit, which lends a subtle softness to the spirit. From there, we run it through a final distillation in our small copper pot still, a process that refines and polishes the spirit to perfection. Finally, it’s proofed down to 40% ABV with our triple-filtered Tasmanian water thus ensuring that every bottle reflects the purity of its origin.

The result? A vodka that’s crisp, clean, and endlessly versatile—whether you’re mixing a cocktail or breaking out the shot glasses.

The Joy of Mixing Returns

Vodka has long been a bartender’s best friend, and now, we want to bring that spirit of creativity back to home drinkers. Whether you prefer a classic Vodka Soda, a bold Espresso Martini, or something entirely new, Nonesuch Vodka is designed to be your canvas.

So grab your favourite mixer, get creative, and rediscover the joy of making your own perfect drink. And if you feel like channelling your inner Bond, we won’t judge you for insisting on a Vodka Martini, shaken—not stirred.

With Nonesuch Vodka, it’s time to take back cocktail hour.
