Pinnacle is a fairly new brand of vodka, founded in 2002 and owned by the American manufacturer of spirits, Beam Suntory, which also owns other popular brands such as Jim Beam, Maker’s Mark, and Knob Creek. During its genesis, Pinnacle is distilled five separate times in the legendary Cognac region of France, known as the “Spirit Valley”, which improves the overall smoothness and helps remove any impurities, resulting in a clean vodka with less bite.
Pinnacle Vodka Price List 2022
Pinnacle vodka prices will, of course, vary greatly by region, but typically a 750 ml bottle can be purchased from your distributor of choice for between $9.99 to $14.99. At a rather affordable price, some may scoff at Pinnacle as a lower-shelf vodka, but we would caution drinkers against making such a rash judgment, however. While the price point may not be at the upper end of the vodka spectrum, it is important to note that cost alone does not indicate good liquor. Pinnacle is surprisingly smooth and drinkable, and, in fact, the most highly awarded vodka in France.

Pinnacle Alternatives at Comparable Prices
If you are looking for an alternative vodka at a similar price point, consider Deep Eddy’s or Smirnoff as each has some good flavored selections within a few dollars of Pinnacle.
With five flavors available from Deep Eddy’s, you don’t have quite the same level of choosing power, but you can select from a few of the most classic flavors for a vodka soda, or if you choose one of their more southern flavors like peach or sweet tea, you can easily mix either of these with lemonade or tea to instantly have a lovely little taste of the south. Each Deep Eddy’s flavor also has a very vibrant color which can make for very aesthetically pleasing looking drinks.
Smirnoff offers fifteen flavor choices, many of which overlap with options from Pinnacle, but just as Coke and Pepsi have different tastes, it may be worth exploring which of these brands you enjoy more and feel presents a particular flavor better. Smirnoff does offer some unique flavors as well, such as the rather popular Green Apple flavor.

7 Indulgent Flavor Varieties
- Pinnacle Whipped

Add one part peach schnapps to one part Pinnacle whipped for a delightful peach and cream shot that is smooth and sweet and goes down easily.

From the great success of whipped, we received chocolate whipped. Delicious milk chocolate with the same light and creamy backdrop as the original whipped.
Chocolate whipped can easily be substituted for standard vodka in a White Russian, offering up some chocolate goodness while bolstering the creamy profile of the drink.
Drop a shot into some coffee. Feel free to add some creme de menthe, peppermint schnapps, or hazelnut liqueur.
