Our Story

I · Dusk

It starts with the founder.

Joshua Blanco is a proud veteran, an entrepreneur, and a Parsons School of Design graduate whose career spans worlds that rarely meet: from serving as an executive in luxury beauty with Christian Dior Cosmetics to serving his country in the United States Coast Guard.

As a Food Service Specialist in the U.S. Coast Guard, he learned that the best conversations, lasting friendships, and unforgettable memories are built around a shared table. That belief became the foundation of this brand. Every company he has built since has been guided by thoughtful design, uncompromising quality, and a genuine commitment to bringing people together.

II · Candlelight

Every bottle tells a story.

Voodoo Vodka began one evening at the historic Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables, with a question about vodka: why choose one grain when balance might create something better?

Two small glasses of clear spirit on a dark hotel-bar table, a head of wheat beside one and kernels of corn beside the other, lit by one warm bar lamp.

III · Nightfall

The origin.

The idea was born over a conversation about vodka preferences, some favoring wheat, others corn. It sparked a question worth taking seriously:

Why choose one when balance might create something better?

That curiosity led to months of tasting and refinement, and ultimately to a proprietary grain blend crafted for clarity, balance, and versatility. Smooth enough to sip, structured enough for elevated cocktails.

IV · The Note

A note from the founder.

Voodoo Vodka reflects a simple belief. The best moments in life aren’t things we own; they’re experiences we share. And through charitable giving and community support, that belief extends beyond the bottle.

Raise your glass with intention. Every bottle tells a story. Enjoy responsibly, and thank you for your patronage,

Joshua Blanco

VI · Midnight

One bottle, made well.

One clean spirit. One beautiful object, meant to be kept long after the last pour.

The house keeps a legend too: a shared table, and a glass raised with intention. That story is fiction, and it lives on its own page.
