Upstate Vodka and Nobu's new "Nashi Highball" cocktail

Upstate Vodka is made from crisp, juicy apples hand-picked from local farms in Upstate region. It is fermented by their own Sauvage Distillery and then distilled. After 2-3 rounds of distillation, the final product is a beautifully clear spirit that balances the delicate tartness of apples with the subtle hints of sweetness - the perfect base for Nobu's new "Nashi Highball" cocktail.

The cocktail features Upstate Vodka, refreshing pear puree, verjus, ginger monkfruit Syrup, and smooth banana liqueur giffard. Garnished with a fresh grape and served over ice, this cocktail is fruity with an opulent texture and gingery touch. This cocktail will be exclusively available at Nobu Downtown's bar and restaurant.

"We are thrilled to collaborate with Nobu Downtown for a signature cocktail that highlights the importance of using high-quality, local craft spirits to elevate the cocktail making process. Nobu Downtown is a key player in the restaurant industry and with their innovation and creativity, our Upstate Vodka is in great hands," said Ken Wortz, head distiller at Sauvage Distillery.

Wortz continued, "With the Nashi Highball, we are excited to showcase the delicate blend of pear and ginger, combined with the complex smoothness of our apple-based vodka, that make this cocktail really stand out. The uniqueness and variety of local distillers in New York offer a chance to create new, innovative cocktails that reflect the character of the area. We couldn't be happier to have our product featured in one of the world's most spectacular restaurants."

Upstate Vodka and Nobu Downtown are dedicated to bringing patrons a quality experience that is both memorable and unique. This special cocktail collaboration emphasizes the innovation and creativity present in both brands and is a must-try for any cocktail lover.
