What is potato alcohol?

Potato alcohol is a premium neutral spirit distilled from potatoes, valued for its smooth, creamy texture and clean flavour profile. While most neutral alcohols are grain-based, potato alcohol offers a distinctive character that makes it especially attractive for premium spirit producers and industries looking for differentiation.

How potato alcohol is made

Potato alcohol production combines traditional craft with modern precision. At Nedstar, we ensure each step of the process meets the highest international standards.

Production process at a glance:

  1. Preparation – Potatoes are carefully cleaned and prepared for processing.
  2. Cooking – Starch in the potatoes is broken down into fermentable sugars.
  3. Fermentation – Yeast converts the sugars into alcohol.
  4. Distillation – Alcohol is purified and concentrated, often through multiple distillations for a neutral, high-quality result.
  5. Filtration & Quality Control – The spirit is refined and tested to guarantee purity, consistency, and compliance.

Potatoes compared to other raw materials

Potato alcohol stands out for its unique characteristics, distinct from other raw materials commonly used in alcohol production. Compared to grains such as corn, wheat, and barley, potatoes offer a smoother flavour profile, which is why potato vodka is becoming increasingly popular.

Beyond taste, potato alcohol is naturally gluten-free and can be GMO-free, making it a safe and appealing option for health-conscious buyers and those with dietary restrictions. With Nedstar, you also benefit from trusted quality, supported by strict international certifications and a reliable global supply chain.

A spirit with history and character

Potato alcohol has its roots in Eastern Europe and Scandinavia, where potato vodka became a hallmark of quality and tradition. Today, while grain alcohol dominates global production, potato alcohol remains a niche choice for premium spirits. Its distinctive texture and rich heritage make it a preferred option for distillers who wish to stand out in an increasingly competitive market.

Uses of potato alcohol

While many beverages, such as vodka and gin, usually use grain alcohol as a base spirit, potato alcohol is gradually becoming more popular in Europe due to its versatility and wide availability. Additionally, consumers' growing interest in special liquor creations such as potato vodka motivates companies to find other raw materials for new and exciting liquor products.

Potato alcohol can also be found in the non-food sector, where it is commonly used as neutral alcohol in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries, as well as in industrial applications. Examples of that include, but are not limited to, solvents, perfumes, and preservatives.
