The wheat used in the creation of Grey Goose vodka is grown in Picardy, France. Distilled in the same region, north and east of Paris, the distillate is then sent to Cognac, France. The wheat used in Grey Goose is soft winter wheat, sown in October and harvested in August. The water used in the vodka comes from a natural spring 500 feet below the blending facility in Cognac, which is lined with limestone, providing calcium-rich spring water. The Vodka is filtered through a statement of taste and water is then filtered to remove impurities
