Story

Trust us, it doesn’t come by taking shortcuts. At BlackEyed Distilling Co., our black-eyed peas and corn are 100% sourced from Texas. Yes, we take great pride in keeping our story an honest-to-goodness Texan tale from start to ultra premium finish. Quality ingredients make all the difference. That’s why we carefully inspect every batch of non-GMO black-eyed peas and corn we use. By keeping a hand in every step of our process, we’re delivering a true farm-to-bottle experience.

Sure, a lot goes into being a true Texas original. At the root of it all is our surprising signature ingredient — the black-eyed pea. So what’s the story behind the black-eyed peas? Well, it all comes down to controlling your own fate. That’s exactly what one down-on-his-luck black-eyed pea farmer decided to do.

Hey, sometimes it takes a bad drought to grow a bold idea. And one night in the fields of Muleshoe, Texas, that bold idea was born — take a failing crop and turn it into the world’s first vodka distilled from black-eyed peas. Some people thought we’d gone a little crazy, but we knew we had something special from the very first sip.
