Make it Smooth with Rick Astley
Where it began
It started backstage. Before every live show, Rick takes a drink with his band. The ritual grew naturally over the course of his tours, and along the way Black Cow, his favourite vodka, became part of it.
A creative partnership
From there a friendship grew. Rick sent Black Cow some musical sketches he had written for the brand, among them Black Cow and Make It Smooth.
An unexpected duet
Rick Astley journeys to Dorset and meets Dexi, the Black Cow.
The martini
that started it all
Two glasses in the freezer, one smooth smooth vodka. Made for sharing.
The best vodka for a martini
“The best vodka hands down to make a Martini, whatever your Martini choice.”
CP, November 2025
Best ever
“It is beyond smooth drunk on its own and when mixed as a cocktail it is superb.”
Anne, October 2026
A great sipping vodka
“Do not waste it by knocking it back in one go.”
Michael, October 2026
