The UV Vodka line earned a Gold Medal at the 2004 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.Quick Facts: ABV: 40%  |  Origin: Princeton, Minnesota, USA  |  Flavored Vodka  |  Distillery: Phillips Distilling CompanyProduction & HeritagePhillips Distilling Company produces UV Vodka in Princeton, Minnesota, using high-quality yellow corn grown in the American Midwest.
