Tale of Origin

Malcolm Hale, founder of Plush Vodka, Source: Facebook

Malcolm Hale founded Plush Vodka in April of 2015. Originally a native from Brooklyn, New York, Hale has had previous business ventures including a car rental business in New York. The Initial Investments for Plush Vodka came from profits of this car rental business.

According to Hale, the idea of founding the company came from drinking flavored vodka that was a little harsh while out with friends. Hale discovered a need for a smoother flavored vodka. PLUSH’s first offering, PLUSH Premium Plum Vodka, was inspired by plum-based drinks in the far East, such as Japanese plum wine.

Plush Vodkas rapidly became available at liquor stores, restaurants and bars throughout his hometown as well as Manhattan, Queens, Long Island and Staten Island. Soon after, people could purchase it at numerous locations in Florida and one in New Jersey.

They recently entered the Southern California market during the pandemic, one of the biggest markets in the U.S. liquor industry.

“The culture just fits the Plush lifestyle, which represents luxury and living the high life, the beaches, and high-end events. We just launched in Southern California a couple of months ago, and it's been a great success. We started in San Diego, and then we're going to start expanding out to LA in the next couple of months.” said Malcom Hale in an interview.

“People are often shocked and surprised at how smooth it is, how good it is.” 
- Malcom Hale, Founder of PLUSH Vodka

Plush Premium Plum flavored Vodka is prominent for its smooth texture, this is attributed to the rigorous distillation process it goes through.

The richness and delicacy of the plum have been carefully fused with the 6 times distilled PLUSH Premium Vodka. PLUSH is distilled from corn grain and goes through rigorous testing to ensure that every bottle is strictly made using only natural flavors while also being gluten-free and kosher; resulting in the smoothest and most elegantly flavored vodka available.

It is accompanied by the essence of the soft, smooth, and sweet plum fruit. The Plum has been used throughout history to make Plum Liquor also known as Plum Wine. The richness of the plum is believed to be one of the most complimentary fruits for pairing with premium liquor.

Accompanying the rich and smooth finish, the Vodka is also Gluten-free and Non-GMO and is known for it’s delightful aroma amongst its lovers.
