1. Wait a Bit Vodka is a Jamaican-made, premium small-batch vodka, started with select yellow yams grown by small farmers in the tiny mountainside surrounding our distillery located in the ‘likkle’ town of Wait a Bit, Trelawny, and completed using local spring water from the Cockpit Country. It’s gluten-free, and the freshest vodka on the market. From yam to glass, we provide you with a high-quality spirit while supporting local farming initiatives in Jamaica.

 

2. A history of the company

Wait a Bit Distillers was created with the vision to produce premium quality spirits with great Jamaican flavour and showcase it to the world.

 

3. Where the ingredients are sourced

Our ingredients are sourced in Jamaica. Mostly within 10 miles of our distillery at Wait a Bit, Trelawny.

 

4. Where the products are currently being sold

Wait a Bit Vodka will be on the market late June 2024.

 

5. The story behind the packaging for the products

Our vodka truly is crafted in small batches. All by hand including the packaging.

 

6. Our breakthrough came

Our first breakthrough came after a recent tasting with a well-known spirits company and their amazement with the quality of our vodka.

 

7. Our vodka

Will be available at select retailers soon.

 

8. The response to the product has been

The overall response has been very positive. We’re producing the freshest vodka, and all from local raw material and small farmers.

 

9. We plan to grow the business to become

We plan to grow Wait a Bit Vodka to be known internationally for the quality of our Jamaican yellow yams.

 

10. The major challenge is

There were major challenges in the beginning with engineering works, and being in rural Jamaica. It’s okay though, we just had to Wait-a-Bit.

 

11. Jamaicans should support the product because…

Wait a Bit Vodka is made from our local yellow yam, hand planted and reaped by hard working farmers in Jamaica. It’s the freshest vodka on the market, and being small, we focus on a premium quality experience. The support has been great and is appreciated.
