What does it mean to be American-made?
True to its name, Salute American Vodka is USA Certified™, which means that the company is creating American jobs through agriculture, manufacturing and sales. Beyond production, we partner with American distributors and retailers to sell Salute American Vodka in U.S.-based stores, restaurants and bars, and connect with local charities to honor veterans and other American heroes in their own communities who have served, or continue to bravely serve, our country. In an era of outsourcing, it is our goal to create products, and partner with service providers, who employ and support the American workforce. At once, Salute American Vodka is creating a quality spirit for the public while supporting the U.S. economy, creating jobs, and helping servicemen and women transition from military to civilian life.
