Imagine a nice, creamy, and smooth vodka that is not made from the usual grains but from leftover milk? Sounds delicious, right? Well, Summer Lands Camel is all set to serve just that. Summer Land Camels is a pioneering camel dairy brand from Australia, and it has recently launched the world’s first camel milk vodka called "French Oak Matured." What is it? How is it made? Well, do not worry, unsobered has answers to all your questions right here. Keep reading.
Summer Land Camels has achieved a significant milestone in the camel dairy and beverage industries by launching the world's first camel milk vodka. This innovative spirit is made from camel milk whey. For people who do not know, camel milk whey is a byproduct that is usually thrown away during cheese and dairy processing. The company saw this and transformed the same nutrient-rich whey into a sustainable and unique vodka.

Camel Milk vodka is made by distilling camel milk whey, which is fermented and triple-distilled in order to preserve its smoothness and unique flavor. This vodka is then aged in French oak barrels and later also infused with honey that is locally sourced in order to add depth.

The result of the whole process is a silky-smooth and creamy spirit which has toasted oak nuances, rich caramel notes, and malted cream flavors, offering a warm finish. It is not your typical vodka, as it actually has a very creamy mouthfeel with a tinge of peppery sweetness.
This camel milk vodka does not have a neutral or harsh character like the typical vodka; instead, it offers a lingering finish that is incredibly smooth. The aroma of this vodka is subtle yet inviting, with gentle notes that mirror the palate experience without overpowering it.
The flavor profile is very distinct, making it perfect for both sipping neat and mixing in cocktails to make the cocktail more flavorful and creamy.

Summer Land Camels has always emphasized the concepts of sustainability and zero waste. Each bottle uses around three liters of camel milk whey, demonstrating a "whole-animal, no-waste" farming approach. This approach benefits both the environment and agricultural innovation.
The production is small-batch and artisanal. This also involves triple distillation to keep the vodka clean but full of character.
As of now, this vodka has been launched only in Australia. It is available on Summer Land Camels' website and selected retailers like Dan Murphy's. This camel’s milk vodka is available in 200ml and 500ml bottles for now. The price in Australia starts from around AUD 59 for a 200ml bottle.
If the growing interest in innovative and premium alcohol products in India is considered, French Oak Matured might reach Indians through future official launches soon. If the product officially launches in India, expect it to be priced as a luxury spirit, not your daily bar drink, which you can enjoy on special occasions.
If you are curious to try a completely distinct flavor or are conscious about health and the environment, this vodka variant is for you. Summer Land Caramel’s camel vodka is innovative, eco-conscious, and smooth in a bottle.
