Testimonials
Jason ReschMy name is Jason Resch. My wife and I own a small 8 lane bowling center in Wittenberg, WI. We are a small family business like yourselves. My daughter Miranda and her husband Ryan visited your distillery this past weekend and fell in love with the place. They spoke so well of your family and the story of how the business came to be. I would like you to know that after trying your vodka, which they bought me as a present, I was so impressed with that I will be selling it regularly at our establishment. We will do a drink special this summer with your vodka exclusively. I know the love and passion that it takes to run a small family business and I saw it in the eyes of my Son-in-law and heard it in the voice of my daughter as they relayed your family’s story to me. I wish you nothing but the best. Rest assured that you have another family business in your corner working to sell your product. Have a great day!! .

Sara BrinkmanA very friendly and welcoming tour. I am so amazed by the whole vodka process,
and love that the family all worked together to make the distillery.
I love all the products.
Ryan HainstockLook what I found! The bartender told me to tell you that A. People ask for it by name, and B. They replaced Absolüt with this.
Ben H OrchardI’m a Tito’s Vodka fan, but I’m also Texan, so let’s say I’m partial. That being said, I think that you guys make the best potato vodka that I have ever had. Keep up the great work and keep the spirits flowing. I will keep it on my shelf.
Cassandra Lewisso smooth! I’m not a big vodka fan until having this!! September 15, 2018
Mary Ellen HoffmannBack in fall our bunco group went to door County for a few days of fun. We had a blast, particularly at Hendricks distillery.The beginning of the tour started with a vodka tasting. We had a blast and overstayed our welcome in the tasting room. Everyone bought bottles of their Pure Class vodka. It was so smooth. They also have a 50-50 vodka that was great. All other 50-50 vodkas that I use for a lighter drink, were no comparison to Hendricks. Go to their tour,You’ll have a blast and definitely pick up their Pure Class vodka.

Thank you Peggy for your time and sharing the family story . By far this is the best vodka you will ever have . I will continue to bring people to you !
Patricia MiedenCongratulations to you and your family!
Last summer I visited friends in Neenah who poured me some Pure Class Vodka, and I loved it. I prefer drinking potato vodka, but have difficulty finding it, always an import. But I don’t need to do that anymore! Pure Class is a wonderfully smooth vodka, and I am proud that a fellow Badger entrepreneur produces it.
My only challenge is that it is not widely distributed YET. I predict it will be very soon. I live near Iowa City now, but grew up in Barneveld. Can you develop a wish list on your web site for your “wantabe” customers for future locations? I love your story, and appreciate that you believe in doing it right.
LinneaI think it would be a hit in the bars/restaurants and then people will ask for it at the liquor store. Maybe try the more hip and/or artisan restaurants/bars in Minneapolis? Minnesotans like vodka and Minnesotans like stuff made in the Midwest. Best of luck! I will start asking for your product to get the word out.

There was so much in depth information given about the entire process, but SO interesting! Not only did I have such a fun time I feel like I learned so much about distilling. Peggy was literally the best tour guide and damn, you make some pretty tasty moonshine girl 😉 The house drinks (the Jimmy Hendricks and bloody) were phenomenal! We will take our experience back to Milwaukee and ask everywhere we go…we’ve got one down so far! Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience!”
VICKY MERLINEPeggy was an amazing tour guide! Would highly recommend!!!

Great host you are Peggy. I need to buy another bottle of Eureka Gold, my wife drank half the bottle the day we bought it.

This was a wonderful, fun experience! The entire history, constructing, processing, and marketing done by one family in the fields of Wisconsin is amazing.

Pure Class Vodka is one of those places that you imagine taking everyone you know to. Not only is the vodka the best that you have ever had but the tour of their facilities is remarkable. The way Peggy walks you through the whole story of their distillery origin story is fascinating. I was not a huge Vodka person when I went to the tour but after trying all their products I can definitely say that I will be drinking a lot more vodka. Thank you for showing us a wonderful time.
Bill and Karly SchwalbachLove your vodka. IMO, better than grey goose or Chopin. AND I can support a local company. Awesome!
GeneMy wife and I had your vodka last night at Parnell’s Restaurant in Oshkosh. It was great!! It tasted as good as Grey Goose.
Loreli ReiersoThis family is as amazing as their vodka! Peggy gave us a fantastic tour and they will forever have me as a loyal customer! I could go on and on, but let me tell you, just try the vodka, it’s smooth taste speaks for itself and I was not a vodka drinker prior to Pure Class! Thank you Hendricks Family!
Mike Damro https://www.variantproductions.com/Such a great family with an amazing story. They work hard, drink hard, play hard, and make hard vodka that’s the smoothest I’ve ever tasted. Very authentic feel and welcoming atmosphere. They even have some secret drinks they don’t mind sharing if you ask nicely. Cheers to the Hendricks Family Distillery.
Joanne RoushCongratulations to all the artisans and enthusiasts who have made Pure Class a world class vodka, right here in Wisconsin! It’s my vodka of choice and on my Christmas list every year now. Fabulous!
