3 kilos Vodka Coco Gold 75 cl Premium Dutch Vodka 30%

Item no.: 22227865479-7119

A bottle shaped like a gold ingot, stamped 999.9 and filled with coconut. Subtle it is not. Behind the gold sits a wheat spirit from Schiedam, the old Dutch distilling town where grain has been run through stills since the 1600s.
Expert description
3 Kilos Vodka Coco Gold is a coconut spirit drink built on Dutch Vodka from Schiedam and bottled at 30%.
The base is the house 3 Kilos Vodka Gold 999.9, made from selected European wheat. The grain travels to Schiedam in South Holland, where it is fermented and distilled five times, and the spirit is then cut with water purified by reverse osmosis. Only after that does the coconut enter the picture.
Then there is the 30%. The European Union demands a minimum of 37.5% before anything may be called vodka, so Coco Gold is not a vodka in the legal sense but a spirit drink made from vodka. That is not an empty technicality. The lower strength makes it softer and rounder in the mouth, and it is built to be mixed rather than knocked back.
The coconut is obvious but never suntan lotion. It leans towards fresh coconut flesh rather than confectionery, and the wheat base still sits underneath, keeping the whole thing from turning sticky.
Tasting notes
Nose
Fresh coconut flesh first, then vanilla and a light floral note. The alcohol almost hides itself.
Palate
Velvety and soft. Coconut fills the middle with a creamy sweetness, and a mild wheat character sits below it.
Finish
Short and sweet. The coconut hangs around for a moment before everything dries out calmly.

Schiedam has the tallest windmills in the world. They were built absurdly high because the town distilleries stood so close together that the sails had to clear the rooftops to catch enough wind to grind the malt.

42 Below Vodka Premium New Zealand Vodka 40%

Item no.: 22227865547-88521

The 42nd parallel south cuts straight through New Zealand. You cannot get much further from everything else in the inhabited world, and that is exactly the point the whole bottle rests on: clean water, clean air, no neighbours to worry about.
Expert description
42 Below Vodka is a New Zealand Vodka made from wheat and bottled at 40%.
The story starts in 1999 in a garage in Wellington. Geoff Ross had a thought that a country as clean as New Zealand ought to be able to make one of the purest vodkas in the world, and set about it on his own. First he sold to friends, then to bars, and eventually the whole country wanted the bottle. Today it sits on shelves across most of the globe.
The name points at the latitude, and the water is part of the argument: it is drawn from an aquifer beneath old volcanic rock. The wheat is New Zealand grown, and the spirit is cleaned so far that the grain is barely sensed. That makes it one of the most obliging bases behind a bar — it settles underneath the other ingredients instead of fighting them.
Tasting notes
Nose
Clean and cool with a faint citrus trace. The grain sits well back and makes no fuss.
Palate
Soft and almost oily in texture. A mild sweetness from the wheat, with no sharp alcoholic edge.
Finish
Fresh and full in the mouth, but short. A clean, lightly mineral impression is what stays.

Absolut Miniature Premium Swedish Vodka 5 cl 40%

Item no.: 22227865479-8666

The most recognisable bottle in the spirits world, shrunk to something that fits a coat pocket. The same curved shoulder, the same clear glass, the same lettering printed straight onto the bottle. Simply in pocket format.
Expert description
Absolut is a Swedish Vodka made from winter wheat grown at Åhus and bottled at 40% in a 5 cl bottle.
Every single drop of Absolut comes from the same place. The wheat is grown around Åhus in southern Sweden, sown in autumn and harvested the following year, and the water is drawn from a deep local well. Distillation runs continuously rather than in batches, a method Lars Olsson Smith developed in the nineteenth century and which earned him the nickname Brännvinskungen, the vodka king.
He launched Absolut Rent Brännvin in 1879. A hundred years later, in 1979, the brand was relaunched internationally in the bottle we know today — drawn from an old Swedish apothecary flask, without a paper label and with the text printed directly into the glass. The miniature is that same bottle in small format.
Tasting notes
Nose
Clean and lightly bready. There is a fine grain character and otherwise very little to hold on to, which is the intention.
Palate
Soft and dry with a discreet grain sweetness. The alcohol registers as warmth rather than as sharpness.
Finish
Short and clean. It releases quickly and leaves no bitterness behind.

Lars Olsson Smith was known as Brännvinskungen, the vodka king. He took on the Stockholm spirits monopoly by selling his brännvin from Reimersholme, outside the city customs line, and ferried people out there so they could buy around the system. That business laid the foundation for Absolut.

Absolut Passionfruit Premium Swedish Vodka 70 cl 38%

Item no.: 505956-498796-453-2

Passion fruit tastes of two things at once: enough acidity to wake the mouth up, and a sweetness that lands afterwards. It is a fruit that can carry a whole drink on its own — and here it sits on top of a vodka from the grain fields of Skåne.
Expert description
Absolut Passionfruit is a Swedish Vodka carrying natural passion fruit flavour, bottled at 38%.
The base is the same as everywhere else in the house: winter wheat from the land around Åhus and water from a deep well in the same place. The flavour comes from natural aromas, and no sugar is added. That detail matters, because sugar is what makes the fruit in many flavoured vodkas turn flat and syrupy after the first mouthful.
Alongside the passion fruit sits a stroke of orange blossom. That floral note is why the bottle lifts a tonic rather than merely colouring it, and it gives you something to build on in drinks with ginger or lime. All of it bottled at 38%, the strength Absolut uses across its flavoured range.
Tasting notes
Nose
Clear passion fruit with acidity at the edge, and behind it a floral note leaning towards orange blossom.
Palate
Fresh, juicy fruit fills the mouth. The sweetness is held back and the acidity keeps everything upright.
Finish
Lightly sweet and fruity, but short. It leaves cleanly without depositing anything sticky.

Did you know?
Passion fruit does not grow in Sweden. Everything else in the bottle does: the wheat comes from the fields around Åhus and the water from a well in the same place. The fruit aroma is therefore the only ingredient that travelled any distance to get there.

Absolut Vanilia Premium Swedish Vodka 70 cl 38%

Item no.: 22227865479-7136

Vanilla is the kind of aroma people react to before they have thought about it. It sits in childhood baking, in the cream on a cake, in anything warm. Absolut put it into a clear bottle and left the rest as vodka.
Expert description
Absolut Vanilia is a Swedish Vodka carrying natural vanilla flavour, bottled at 38%.
The expression arrived in 2003 and rests on the same base as the rest of the house: winter wheat grown around Åhus in southern Sweden and water from a deep, protected well. Natural vanilla sits on top of that base. No sugar is added, which separates it from a number of other flavoured vodkas where the sweetness comes from syrup rather than from aroma.
The result is more robust than the name suggests. The vanilla is of the warm, creamy sort, and beneath it lie butterscotch and a stroke of dark chocolate. Because there is no sugar in the bottle it dries out towards the end instead of turning sticky — which is exactly why it works in drinks that already carry sweetness from liqueur or coffee.
Tasting notes
Nose
Warm bourbon vanilla with a breath of butterscotch. The aroma is clear without being perfumed.
Palate
Creamy vanilla fills the middle, followed by caramel and a suggestion of dark chocolate. There is enough body that it does not vanish in a mixed drink.
Finish
Drier than the opening promises. The chocolate hangs on while the sweetness pulls back.

Did you know?
There is not a gram of added sugar in the bottle. The sweetness you experience is pure aroma — the brain reads the vanilla scent as sweetness even though there is nothing sweet to measure. It is also why the finish dries out instead of clinging.

Adnams East Coast Vodka 70 cl 40%

Item no.: 505956-498796-453-7

Beer has been brewed in Southwold on the English east coast since 1872. When the distillery arrived in 2010, nobody had to go looking for a wash to distil. It was already fermenting in the brewery next door.
Expert description
Adnams East Coast Vodka is an English Single Malt Vodka from Adnams Copper House Distillery in Southwold, distilled from 100% East Anglian malted barley and bottled at 40%.
Adnams is a brewery first and a distillery second, and that explains most of what this vodka is. The house makes its own wash from East Anglian malted barley, the same grain that goes into the beers, and distils it on in the Copper House Distillery. The grain is followed from local fields to the bottle, and that thinking runs through the whole spirits range.
Using malted barley rather than wheat or neutral molasses is a choice with consequences. Barley delivers an obvious malt sweetness that an ordinary vodka would have filtered away, which is why Adnams calls it a Single Malt Vodka. The character sits closer to a young malt spirit than to a Polish rye vodka.
In the glass that means body. The texture is soft and close to velvety, and there is a clear trace of caramel and toffee that is added nowhere but comes from the grain itself. It stands up to being drunk neat, and in a drink you can tell there is something behind the alcohol.
Tasting notes
Nose
Softly malty with the smell of freshly baked bread. A hint of caramel and cooked apple sits behind it.
Palate
Full and lightly sweet. The malt stands out clearly with caramel and toffee, and the texture is soft without turning fat.
Finish
Medium and warm. The malt sweetness hangs on, and a small dry grain note appears at the end.

Serving suggestion: Neat in a small glass at cool temperature, or in an Espresso Martini where the malt sweetness carries the coffee.
Flavour profile
Malty · Full · Caramel and toffee · Soft texture
Did you know?
The same barley spirit is the foundation of the house's Copper House Dry Gin. Adnams calls it the botanical they do not talk about, because without the malt vodka underneath, the gin would not taste the way it does.

Arbikie Chilli Vodka Highland Estate 70 cl 43%

Item no.: 22227865466332-889

In a field above Lunan Bay, chilli plants grow between the potato rows. They are picked, smoked and left to steep in vodka. Arbikie Chilli Vodka is the loudest bottle on the estate, and there is very little like it in Scotland.
Expert description
Arbikie Chilli Vodka is a Scottish Vodka from Arbikie Distillery, built on the house potato vodka and steeped with home-grown chipotle chillies, bottled at 43%.
Chipotle is smoke-dried jalapeño, and it is the smoke rather than the burn that carries this bottle. Arbikie grows the chillies on the farm in Angus and drops them in whole. No extracts, no colourings, no concentrates, which is why the liquid sits pale brown instead of clear.
The base is the same potato spirit the distillery began with. Potato distillate has a weight and a creaminess that grain does not deliver in the same way, and that texture is exactly why the chilli never turns sharp or dusty. The heat settles on top of the softness rather than cutting through it.
Flavoured vodka carries a mixed reputation, and syrup and flavouring compounds are usually to blame. Neither appears here. The chilli steeps until it has given up both smoke and heat, and the bottling strength of 43% gives the spice room to spread.
Tasting notes
Nose
Smoke first, like a bonfire on its way out. Behind it sits dried chilli, a touch of sweetness and something earthy close to baked potato skin.
Palate
Creamy and full at the start, almost soft. Then the chilli arrives: a deep, smoked warmth that builds rather than strikes. Clearly present without ever punishing.
Finish
Long and warm. The smoke hangs on longest while the spice slides slowly down the throat.
Specifications
Name: Arbikie Chilli Vodka
Distillery: Arbikie Distillery

Did you know?
Chipotle is not a chilli variety but a condition. It is a jalapeño left to ripen until it turns red and then dried over smoke, and that is precisely the treatment these chillies get before they meet the vodka.

Arbikie Haar Wheat Vodka Highland Estate 70 cl 43%

Item no.: 227865444111266-98

On some mornings you cannot see the North Sea from Arbikie, even though it sits right there. The cold coastal fog the Scots call haar rolls in across Lunan Bay and settles around the distillery like a sheet. This bottle is named after that fog.
Expert description
Arbikie Haar Wheat Vodka is a Scottish Vodka distilled from Zulu wheat grown on the Arbikie Distillery fields and bottled at 43%.
The wheat variety is called Zulu and grows in the fields known as Black Laws, a short walk from the distillery. That both the variety and the field can be named says something about the way the place works: the raw material is followed all the way through rather than bought in as finished neutral spirit.
Wheat gives a softer and sweeter distillate than barley, and Arbikie has chosen not to strip that character out. Vanilla and caramel sit in the glass as a result. Those are notes usually associated with cask maturation, but here they come from the grain and the distillation alone.
The distillery suggests it in an Espresso Martini, or with cloudy apple juice, soda and a squeeze of lime. Both play on the caramel sweetness sitting at the bottom of the bottle.
Tasting notes
Nose
Apple and caramel, clear and inviting. Behind them sit a thread of baked wheat and a faint floral note.
Palate
Creamy and round with vanilla up front. Caramel follows, and a light spice arrives last to keep the sweetness in check.
Finish
Medium and soft. Vanilla and caramel fade out while the spice stays behind.

Arbikie Tattie Bogle Potato Vodka Highland Estate 70 cl 43%

Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280011

Before the potato fields above Lunan Bay turned into vodka, scarecrows stood in them. The Scots called them tattie bogles, and they kept watch over the rows for generations. The name has stayed with a bottle that still begins in the same place: down in the soil.
Expert description
Arbikie Tattie Bogle Potato Vodka is a Scottish Vodka distilled from three potato varieties grown on the Arbikie Distillery fields and bottled at 43%.
The varieties are Maris Piper, King Edward and Cultra, and they are lifted when the starch is at its best. Potatoes give a heavier, fatter distillate than grain, and that weight is what carries the whole flavour picture. This is vodka with a body, not one polished down to water.
Arbikie calls the method field to bottle. Growing, harvesting, fermenting, distilling, bottling and labelling all happen on the farm in Angus, so every bottle traces back to the field the crop stood in. That is rare in vodka, where most producers buy neutral spirit in from elsewhere.
The bottle was named UK Vodka of the Year at the World Drink Awards, and it shows itself best where texture matters. A Dry Martini with a dry vermouth is the place to start.
Tasting notes
Nose
Creamy and mild with black pepper at the edges. Behind it sits something faintly sweet and floury, like potatoes just off the boil.
Palate
Silky and full. Black pepper arrives halfway through, and underneath it lies a suggestion of pear and cooked grain. No sharp edges anywhere.
Finish
Soft and medium length. The pepper lingers while the weight slowly releases its grip.

Beluga Miniature Noble Premium Russian Vodka 5 cl 40%

Item no.: 22227865479-7126

A miniature is not a small disappointment. It is one serving, filled, labelled and sealed exactly like its bigger sibling, and it lets you form your own opinion without committing to a whole bottle.
Expert description
Beluga Noble is a Russian Vodka made from malt spirit at the Mariinsk Distillery in Siberia, bottled at 40% in a 5 cl miniature.
What is inside is identical to the full bottle. The malt spirit is blended with artesian water from deep Siberian wells, filtered through birch charcoal and given small amounts of honey, oat extract and milk thistle before the whole blend is left to rest for 30 days. Only then does it get bottled — in this format too.
5 cl amounts to roughly one proper serving, which suits the things a large bottle cannot do: a tasting with several brands lined up side by side, a single evening with nothing left over, or a place in luggage where space is short.
Because the vodka is soft and sweet rather than dry and sharp, it also works as a welcome glass before a dinner that turns salty later. The label and the little fish emblem are the same as on the 70 cl bottle, simply scaled down.
Tasting notes
Nose
Honey and pale grain, with a soft touch of vanilla and a cool mineral undercurrent.
Palate
Full and smooth. The malt fills the middle with mild sweetness, the oat turns the texture creamy, and then a dry herbal note reports in.
Finish
Clean and soft. It falls away calmly and leaves a faintly bitter herbal tail.

Belvedere Ultra Premium Vodka 70 cl 40%

Item no.: 22227865479-328

West of Warsaw the Mazovian plain runs flat, and on it grows a rye Polish farmers have worked with for generations. Dankowskie is its name. It was not chosen because it yields the most, but because it yields the most flavour — and that is the whole starting point for Belvedere.
Expert description
Belvedere Ultra Premium is a Polish Vodka distilled four times from Dankowskie rye and bottled at 40%.
It is made at Polmos Żyrardów, a distillery that has been running since 1910 in the factory town of Żyrardów. The rye comes from Polish fields and the water is drawn from the distillery's own artesian wells. Neither sugar, glycerol nor flavouring is added, before or after distillation.
The four distillations are not four identical runs. The first pass happens at an agricultural distillery close to the fields, after which the spirit goes three times through column stills at Żyrardów. The craft lies in stopping before the rye has gone. Plenty of vodkas are distilled until nothing remains but alcohol and water; here the grain is allowed to stay.
That is why Belvedere tastes of something. There is a clear rye character, a creamy middle and a peppered edge that make it more interesting neat than most, and more stubborn in a drink where it refuses to simply disappear.
Tasting notes
Nose
Fresh rye bread crust and vanilla, with a lightly milky tone underneath. The alcohol is barely noticeable.
Palate
Creamy and full through the middle, where the rye brings a mild sweetness. Black pepper and a nutty pull follow.
Finish
Medium and dry. The pepper holds on for a while as the sweetness falls away.

Bistro Vodka Handcrafted In France 70 cl 40%

Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197279921

Paris, 1814. Russian soldiers are sitting in the occupied city and are not allowed to drink in the taverns. They get a glass anyway, quickly and discreetly, while saying bystro — Russian for quick. That, if you believe the story, is where France got the name for its most beloved kind of eating house. This vodka believes it.
Expert description
Bistro Vodka is a French Vodka made from French wheat by Spiritique, bottled small batch at 40%.
The French have no long vodka tradition, but they do have centuries of experience in distilling finely. That is the tradition the house draws on here. The grain is high quality French wheat, the distillation is fine grained rather than brutal, and batches are kept small enough that tasting can happen along the way.
In the glass it is bright and pale, and the remarkable thing is that the alcohol does not burn. The attack is soft, the middle round and floral, and the close is long without turning bitter. This is a vodka built on finesse rather than force, and it lacks the sharp edge many people associate with the category.
Bistro has taken gold at the Bartender Spirits Awards, where the judges are bartenders rather than critics. That tells you where it belongs: behind the bar, as the base of a drink where it is not meant to shout over anything but to carry the whole thing. Spiritique also makes gin, whisky and liqueur, all in smaller batches in France.
Tasting notes
Nose
Soft and elegant. A fine wheat character with a floral tone and pale citrus peel over the top.
Palate
Round and light, with no burn on the attack. The wheat gives a mild sweetness, and a creamy, almost nutty texture sits underneath.
Finish
Long and dry without bitterness. The freshness holds longest and no sharp warmth arrives at the end.

The story about the Russian soldiers is a good one, but French linguists do not buy it. The word bistro first appears in print in the 1880s, some 70 years after the occupation of Paris, which points instead towards dialect words such as bistouille and bistingo. It is still printed on the bottle, because who wants to ruin a good story.

Bivrost Norwegian Arctic Vodka 50 cl 40%

Item no.: 059763-615-1036

At 69 degrees north the Lyngen Alps throw their shadow over a distillery that has grown used to working in the dark. In winter the northern lights stand above the roof for hours. Bivrost takes its name from that very bridge, the one that in Norse mythology connects the world of men with the world of the gods.
Expert description
Bivrost Norsk Arctic Vodka is a Norwegian Vodka from Aurora Spirit Distillery, distilled from Arctic barley and bottled at 40%.
Aurora Spirit Distillery sits in Lyngen in northern Norway, well above the Arctic Circle, and calls itself the world's northernmost distillery. The water comes from the glaciers of the Lyngen Alps: meltwater from ice that froze more than 5,000 years ago and has lain untouched in the mountain ever since. It is filtered, and otherwise handled as little as possible.
Distillation runs through the full column, 15 plates and a five metre tower, where the spirit is cleaned again and again before it is cut with the glacier water. The result is a vodka without sharp edges, but it has not been polished into nothing. A soft grain character from the barley remains, the kind most heavily distilled vodkas strip away completely.
Tasting notes
Nose
Clean and cool. A lightly sweet grain note, a suggestion of vanilla and something mineral, close to wet stone.
Palate
Soft and almost oily in the mouth. The barley shows up as a mild sweetness, followed by a touch of white pepper.
Finish
Short and clean. The sweetness drops away quickly and leaves a cool, mineral impression behind.

Black Cow Miniature England Pure Milk Vodka 5 cl 40%

Item no.: 22227865479-8249

Tell someone you have vodka made from milk and you usually get a raised eyebrow. Five centilitres is exactly what it takes to end the argument — there is enough in the bottle for everyone round the table to check for themselves.
Expert description
Black Cow Pure Milk Vodka is an English Vodka from Black Cow in West Dorset, distilled from the whey of milk and bottled at 40% in a 5 cl miniature.
The content is the same as in the full bottle: whey from the farm's milk is fermented, distilled and bottled by hand in Dorset. Only the volume differs, and volume is precisely what makes the small format so useful when somebody needs convincing.
The miniature belongs in a tasting line-up of unusual raw materials. Set it against a vodka made from potatoes, one from grapes and one from grain, and the difference in mouthfeel becomes something you can point at rather than read about. The milk lays down a weight none of the others carry.
As a gift it is easy to give. Small enough for a gift bag or an advent calendar, and it comes with a story the recipient has not heard before. It also takes up no room in a suitcase if the bottle has to travel to someone at the other end of the country.
Tasting notes
Nose
Mild and lightly sweet, with a trace of condensed milk and a cool undertone.
Palate
Thick and velvety in the mouth. The sweetness is subdued, and there is no burn, only an even, round fullness.
Finish
Soft and short. It slips away without bitterness and leaves a faint dryness.

Black Cow Pure Milk Vodka England 70 cl 40%

Item no.: 22227865479-8248

On a farm in West Dorset the cows stand out on grass, the milk comes in, and the cheese gets made as it always has. What used to run down the drain afterwards now ends up in a bottle. That is the whole story behind Black Cow — and it is every bit as odd as it sounds.
Expert description
Black Cow Pure Milk Vodka is an English Vodka from Black Cow in West Dorset, distilled from whey off grass-grazed cows' milk and bottled at 40%.
The idea turned up in 2011 over a few drinks between two neighbours, one of whom, Jason Barber, is a fifth-generation dairy farmer. A year later the first bottle was ready, and Black Cow became the world's first vodka made purely from milk.
The method follows the dairy. Milk is separated into curds and whey; the curds go to cheese, while the whey — usually a leftover — is set to ferment with a yeast developed specifically to turn milk sugar into alcohol. The resulting "milk beer" is distilled into a neutral spirit, which is then blended by the house's own process, triple filtered and bottled by hand on the farm.
The raw material shows. Lactose ferments differently from the starch in grain or potatoes, and the trace compounds left after distillation pull towards something soft and lightly creamy rather than towards grain sweetness or peppery bite. This is not a vodka that tastes of milk, but nor is it a vodka that tastes like all the others.
Tasting notes
Nose
Soft and faintly sweet, with an impression of whipped cream and a small fresh citrus edge.
Palate
Full and smooth with a clear creaminess that settles like a film across the tongue. The sweetness is mild and carries no sharp edge.
Finish
Clean and soft, medium in length. The creaminess lets go slowly, and a light mineral dryness arrives at the close.

Bodegas Cruz Conde VDKA Blue Premium Spanish Vodka Liqueur 70 cl 17%

Item no.: 22227865479-7120-12

Blue has always been the bartender shortcut to making a glass look like something. Here the colour comes from Andalusia, from a house that has otherwise spent more than a century on cask aged wine, and behind the blue hides passion fruit.
Expert description
Bodegas Cruz Conde VDKA Blue is a Spanish Vodka Liqueur with passion fruit from Montilla in Andalusia, bottled at 17%.
The spirit is made at the house distillery, Destilerias La Cordobesa, where copper stills from the first half of the twentieth century are still in service. It is the same place the family produces anis, pacharan, brandy, rum, gin and whisky, and the VDKA range is simply the most modern branch on a fairly old tree.
At 17% Blue falls outside the vodka category. The European Union draws the line at 37.5%, which is why the producer calls the range a spirit drink derived from vodka. That is a deliberate decision: a liqueur at this strength can carry a whole drink without making it strong, and it can be poured generously without taking command of the glass.
The passion fruit is the real difference. It brings a tart tropical edge that suits the loud blue far better than plain sweetness would. Mixed with citrus and ice it becomes the kind of drink people photograph before they drink it.
Tasting notes
Nose
Passion fruit and a hint of mango. Lemon peel and a light sugar sweetness sit behind them.
Palate
Sweet and tart at once, and lively with it. The tropical fruit fills the middle and the acidity cuts through before the sweetness can settle.
Finish
Short, fresh and slightly tart. The fruit lets go quickly and the mouth comes clean again.

Bodegas Cruz Conde VDKA Red Premium Spanish Vodka Liqueur 70 cl 17%

Item no.: 22227865479-7120-10

In Montilla the bodega stands with whitewashed walls and cool half darkness, and behind them lie the casks of fino and Pedro Ximenez. Somewhere else in the same house they are filling bottles with red. Not wine, but vodka and red fruit, an Andalusian side road nobody saw coming.
Expert description
Bodegas Cruz Conde VDKA Red is a Spanish Vodka Liqueur with red fruits from Montilla in Andalusia, bottled at 17%.
Bodegas Cruz Conde was founded in 1902 by the army commandant Rafael Cruz Conde and sits in Montilla south of Cordoba. The house is known first of all for wines from D.O. Montilla-Moriles, but alongside the wine the family has spent decades building a broad spirits catalogue: brandy, vermouth, anis, rum, gin and, yes, vodka.
The 17% deserves a pause. The producer itself calls the VDKA range a spirit drink derived from vodka, and below 37.5% it cannot legally be sold as vodka in the European Union. In practice it is a vodka liqueur: sweetened, coloured and dialled down in strength so it can be mixed without shouting over the rest of the glass.
Red is the red fruit version. The colour is strong and almost neon in the glass, and the sweetness arrives with the first sip, but the fruit carries a light acidity that keeps it from reading as pure sugar. It was designed as a cocktail ingredient, and that is where it makes the most sense.
Tasting notes
Nose
Strawberry and raspberry, clear and straight up. Behind them sits a boiled sweet tone and a faint hint of cherry.
Palate
Sweet and light bodied. Red fruit fills the entire middle, while the alcohol registers only as a mild warmth right at the end.
Finish
Short and berry sweet. A touch of acidity turns up and clears the mouth faster than the sweetness suggests.

The wines of Montilla-Moriles mature under a veil of yeast just as sherry does, but they are usually never fortified. The Pedro Ximenez grape turns so sugar rich in the Andalusian heat that the wine reaches the strength the flor needs entirely on its own.

Bols Classic Premium Dutch Vodka 70 cl 37.5%

Item no.: 22227865479-13810

Behind most bars in the world stands a row of bottles marked Bols. They are usually brightly coloured, sweet and full of liqueur. This one is the sober member of the family — the clear bottle that is not meant to taste of anything in particular, only to do its job.
Expert description
Bols Classic is a Dutch Vodka from Lucas Bols in Amsterdam, distilled four times from 100% grain and bottled at 37.5%.
Lucas Bols has been around since 1575 and ranks among the oldest spirits brands of all. The house grew large on genever and on a liqueur range that still fills shelves in bars worldwide, and all that experience in hitting the same flavour every single time sits behind the clear bottle too.
The vodka is made solely from grain and distilled four times. The aim is not to build character but to remove whatever gets in the way: fusel oils, harshness and the heavy notes that linger. What is left is a spirit mild enough to drink cold and neutral enough to vanish into a drink without fighting the other ingredients.
The 37.5% is no accident. It is the lower limit the EU allows for a spirit to be called vodka at all, and the lower strength makes the bottle friendlier in long drinks, where alcohol otherwise takes over quickly.
Tasting notes
Nose
Discreet and neutral. There is a trace of pale grain and a distant citrus note, but nothing steps clearly forward.
Palate
Soft and light in body, with a suggestion of sweetness midway. It is smooth rather than full and meets no resistance along the way.
Finish
Short and clean. It closes without heat and without bitterness.

Brewdog Rogue Wave Single Malt Vodka 70 cl 40%

Item no.: 22227865479-18671

In Ellon, north of Aberdeen, stands a brewery that one day decided to build a distillery next door. Malt, yeast and beer were already in the building, so the question was never what they would distil. It was how far they could push it.
Expert description
BrewDog Rogue Wave is a Scottish Vodka made from Single Malt produced at the brewery itself, batch distilled and bottled at 40%.
The ingredient list is short and unusual: malted barley, malted wheat, ale, yeast and water. The vodka begins life as a fermentation closer to a beer than to an industrial grain mash, and that is the whole difference. Sugar, esters and malt are present from the start, and some of it survives the journey through distillation.
Serious money went into the equipment. Vapour passes through the world's first triple bubble copper pot still and then meets a 19 metre rectification column, with the process stretching across seven days. That sounds like a recipe for stripping out all character, but the counterweight is that the spirit is filtered only once. The distillery says it should keep its soul.
You can taste that in the glass. Rogue Wave is clean and crisp without being empty, and a streak of icing sugar and vanilla sits under the surface, which is the malt putting its head up. If you need a vodka that can carry an Espresso Martini without vanishing beneath the coffee, this is a sensible place to look.
Tasting notes
Nose
Crisp and clean with a sweet malt breath. Icing sugar and a trace of vanilla sit on top, with nothing sharp behind.
Palate
Soft attack with clear grain sweetness from the malt. Halfway through it turns dry and a light cereal tone appears, a reminder of where it started.
Finish
Clean and medium long. The sweetness drops away, leaving a dry malted tone and a little warmth.

Chilgrove Vodka England 70 cl 40%

Item no.: 505956-498796-454-1

Chilgrove is a sleepy hamlet in West Sussex at the foot of the South Downs, woodland all around and chalk beneath the ground. Nobody ends up there by accident. But the name sits on a bottle that did something no other English vodka had done before it.
Expert description
Chilgrove Vodka is an English Vodka from Chilgrove Spirits in West Sussex, distilled from grapes and bottled at 40%.
Grapes instead of grain is the whole explanation for why it tastes different. Neutral spirit made from grapes carries a fresh, lightly sweet fruit character, where wheat gives biscuit and rye gives pepper. When the bottle arrived in 2015 it was the first neutral vodka in Britain distilled using grape alcohol.
The water is chosen just as deliberately. It is natural mineral water filtered through the chalk the whole area rests on, and that chalk gives a dry, mineral undercurrent pulling against the sweetness of the grape. That tension is what the bottle lives on.
The house is small and production runs in small batches. Behind it stand Christopher and Celia Beaumont-Hutchings, who first made Chilgrove Dry Gin on the same grape base and then carried that base over into a vodka. It is one idea in two bottles.
Tasting notes
Nose
Clean and lightly fruity. Grapes and a touch of fennel, with a dry chalky tone behind.
Palate
Crisp and smooth. Fruit sweetness comes first, then dark cherry and a suggestion of cocoa, and finally white pepper.
Finish
Medium and mineral. The fruit withdraws and the chalk hangs on as a dry sensation.

Ciroc Apple Premium French Vodka 70 cl 37,5%

Item no.: 22227865479-7218

A green apple bites back. That is the whole point of this bottle: not ripe, soft apple juice, but the sharp jaw twinge you get from the first bite of an apple that is still a little too firm.
Expert description
Ciroc Apple is a French Vodka built on French wine grapes, infused with natural apple flavour and bottled at 37.5%.
The base is the same vodka as the unflavoured expression: Mauzac Blanc and Ugni Blanc fermented into wine, distilled four times in column stills and a fifth time in a copper pot still. Only afterwards is the apple flavour added. The order matters, because the spirit has already been cleaned up by the time the flavour arrives, so the apple settles on top of the grape rather than mixing into it.
The grape base is no accident for this particular variant either. Apple and white grape share a good deal of the same fresh acidity, which is why the apple note reads bright and sharp rather than like confectionery. The vodka is gluten free, as is the rest of the range.
Tasting notes
Nose
Freshly cut green apple with the skin left on. A cooler, almost stalky green note sits behind it and keeps the sweetness in check.
Palate
Crisp and tart from the first sip. Apple fills the front of the tongue while the grape base provides a soft cushion underneath. The sweetness is clear but never sticky.
Finish
Cleansing and short. The acidity hangs around for a moment, then everything dries out neatly and leaves the mouth ready for the next sip.

Ciroc Coconut Premium French Vodka 70 cl 37,5%

Item no.: 22227865479-7221

Coconut is one of those flavours that almost always gets overdone. Sun cream, cake batter, white syrup. The ambition here is different: the coconut should read like something just grated off a fresh nut, not something poured from a bottle with a parasol attached.
Expert description
Ciroc Coconut is a French Vodka built on French wine grapes, infused with natural coconut and tropical fruit flavour and bottled at 37.5%.
The spirit itself is identical to the unflavoured Ciroc. The grapes are fermented into wine, run four times through column stills and a fifth time through the copper pot still at Maison Villevert. The flavours go in afterwards. The producer describes the aroma as freshly grated coconut and vanilla, and that is exactly the line the bottle holds.
Coconut and grape make more sense together than you might expect. The grape base already carries a lightly oily texture, and it amplifies the creamy sensation the nut brings along. The liquid is clear in the glass rather than milky, and it is gluten free.
Tasting notes
Nose
Freshly grated coconut flesh with a layer of soft vanilla laid over it. Further in sits a green, almost milky note from the young nut.
Palate
Creamy without turning heavy. Coconut occupies the whole middle while a light tropical fruit sweetness pushes in from the side. The alcohol barely registers.
Finish
Soft and persistent. Vanilla lingers longest, and right at the very end the grape base reappears as a dry line.

Item no.: 22227865479-7224

A properly ripe mango can barely be cut. The flesh gives way under the knife, the smell fills the kitchen, and you end up eating it over the sink. That is the image this bottle works from.
Expert description
Ciroc Mango is a French Vodka built on French wine grapes, infused with natural mango flavour and bottled at 37.5%.
The foundation is once again the grape spirit from Maison Villevert, distilled five times and bottled without any ageing. The mango goes on after distillation, and the producer highlights the mouthfeel in particular: there is a clear, almost pulpy weight that sets it apart from the more citrus driven expressions in the range.
Mango is one of the hardest fruits to pin down in a spirit, because the aroma easily turns perfumed. Here it is held down by the dryness of the grape base, which cuts through the sweetness and pulls it back towards something more genuinely fruity. The vodka is gluten free.
Tasting notes
Nose
Ripe mango with the skin on, sweet and almost resinous. A small lift of lime sits underneath and keeps the aroma awake.
Palate
Full and thick in feel. The mango spreads across the whole tongue with tropical sweetness while the grape base slowly draws it dry again towards the end.
Finish
Warm and fruity with moderate length. The sweetness falls away evenly and leaves a lightly tart edge behind, closer to the skin than the flesh.

Late summer, a peach that is one day past perfect, and juice running down the wrist. That is the sensation this bottle chases. Not tinned fruit, but the short window where the peach is at its peak and about to give up entirely.
Expert description
Ciroc Peach is a French Vodka built on French wine grapes, infused with natural peach flavour and bottled at 37.5%.
The base is the five times distilled grape vodka from Maison Villevert, and peach has been laid over it along with a set of lighter orchard notes. The producer highlights the rich, smooth texture, and it shows: of the whole Ciroc range this is the expression that fills the most mouth.
The fruit was chosen to work with the grape rather than against it. Stone fruit and white grape share a floral, faintly honeyed character, which is why the peach does not sit on the spirit like a foreign object. The vodka is gluten free.
Tasting notes
Nose
Ripe yellow peach with the skin on, and behind it a bright note of apricot and white flowers. There is no tartness in the aroma, only fruit sweetness.
Palate
Rich and smooth with clear stone fruit. The sweetness is round and broad rather than sharp, and a faintly bitter kernel note sits behind it to keep things interesting.
Finish
Soft and reasonably long. The peach lets go slowly, and a dry grape note arrives at the end to tidy up after it.

Ciroc Pineapple Premium French Vodka 70 cl 37,5%

Item no.: 22227865479-7223

Pineapple has two sides. The sweet golden core, and the sharp acidity right out by the skin that prickles slightly on the tongue. This bottle tries to hold on to both at once.
Expert description
Ciroc Pineapple is a French Vodka built on French wine grapes, infused with natural pineapple flavour and bottled at 37.5%.
Underneath the flavour sits the same grape vodka as the rest of the range, distilled four times in column stills and a fifth time in the copper pot still. The producer calls the pineapple the most versatile expression in the line up, which is not far off: it handles citrus soda, orange juice and more pineapple on top equally well.
The acidity the pineapple brings is why this variant rarely becomes cloying. Where coconut and peach add weight, pineapple pulls the other way and sharpens the drink. That makes it the obvious Ciroc flavour when you are mixing for a crowd. The vodka is gluten free.
Tasting notes
Nose
Freshly cut pineapple, distinctly golden and slightly green at the edge. A lightly sour note sits behind it, closer to the skin than to the flesh.
Palate
Juicy and lively. Sweetness leads but is quickly overtaken by a tropical acidity running down the sides of the tongue. The grape base keeps the middle soft.
Finish
Fresh and reasonably short. The acidity clears up after the sweetness and leaves a light bite that makes the next sip easy.

Ciroc Premium French Vodka 70 cl 40%

Item no.: 22227865479-121

High above the Tarn valley in Gaillac the grapes come off the vine while the nights are still cold. They never reach a wine bottle. They are pressed, fermented and pushed through five distillations until nothing but clear spirit remains. And still, the vineyard is somehow left in the glass.
Expert description
Ciroc Premium French Vodka is a French Vodka distilled five times from French wine grapes and bottled at 40%.
Two white grape varieties do the work. Mauzac Blanc grows in the high vineyards around Gaillac in south west France, Ugni Blanc comes from Cognac. The fruit is cold macerated at around 8 degrees so the aromatics are drawn slowly out of the skins, then the must is cold fermented into wine. Distillation only begins once that wine is finished. The method belongs to the wine trade rather than to the brewhouse.
The first four runs happen in column stills, taking the spirit up to roughly 96%. The fifth and final run takes place in a tailor made copper pot still at Maison Villevert in southern France, and that is where the character is set. Nothing is aged and nothing is added before the spirit is cut with water to 40%. Since no grain enters the recipe, the vodka is gluten free.
Tasting notes
Nose
Citrus peel and a light floral lift. Underneath sits something sweet and juicy that points clearly towards grape rather than grain.
Palate
Soft, almost oily across the tongue. Citrus arrives first, then a mild white grape sweetness, and finally a trace of white pepper.
Finish
Short and clean cut. The citrus note withdraws slowly and leaves no burn behind in the throat.

Crystal Head Miniature Premium Canadian Vodka 5 cl 40%

Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280086

The whole idea shrunk down to the palm of your hand. The same skull shape, the same lead free clear glass, the same vodka inside — only in a format that fits a coat pocket or sits at the top of a Christmas hamper.
Please note: The bottle is supplied with a red ribbon.
Expert description
Crystal Head Miniature is a Canadian Vodka distilled four times from corn and bottled at 40% in a 5 cl skull bottle.
The contents are exactly the same as in the full size bottle. The raw material is peaches and cream corn, distilled four times into neutral spirit and then blended with water from Newfoundland. The vodka is finally filtered seven times, three of those passes running over Herkimer diamonds. No glycerol, no citrus oils and no sugar are added.
This is the smallest format Crystal Head makes. The house moulds bottles in five sizes, from 5 cl all the way up to 3 litres, and the miniature is the one most people meet first. It holds just enough for two proper tastes and stays small enough to end up as an ornament on the shelf afterwards.
Tasting notes
Nose
Neutral grain aroma with a fine dusting of citrus. There are no sharp edges to watch out for.
Palate
Silky with a suggestion of sweetness and vanilla. The corn supplies body without turning heavy.

Crystal Head bottles carry no paper label at all.
The liquid is the original vodka. The corn comes from Canadian fields, the spirit is run four times and then blended with water from Newfoundland. No glycerol, no citrus oils and no sugar are added, and filtration happens seven times, with three of those passes running over Herkimer diamonds.
Tasting notes
Nose
Neutral and grainy with a fine citrus note laid on top. The aroma is discreet and free of any alcohol sting.
Palate
Silky the whole way. A suggestion of sweetness is followed by clear vanilla, without ever turning perfumed.
Finish
Sweet and creamy. It closes gently and leaves a lightly milky impression behind.

Did you know?
There is not a single piece of paper on the bottle. Crystal Head has never used labels — all text and all decoration sit directly on the glass, and on the Rainbow edition that means the colours are part of the bottle rather than something that can be peeled off.

Cuba Dry Lemon Flavored Vodka Spirit Drink 70 cl 30%

Item no.: 2229-101778

The rest of the family is about colour and sugar. Dry Lemon declines. Tart lemon over a clean vodka base, and not a great deal else, which is the entire reason it exists.
Expert description
Cuba Dry Lemon is a Danish Vodka Spirit Drink from Spritfabrikken Danmark in Kolding, made with triple distilled vodka carrying a lightly tart lemon flavour and bottled at 30%.
It is the driest bottle in the range and was developed for people who do not want things too sweet. Where the strawberry and orange lean on boiled sweets, this one sits closer to the peel of a lemon, and the sugar has been turned down noticeably.
The base is vodka distilled three times, and because the strength is set at 30% the label reads spirit drink made with vodka. The producer recommends it chilled, shaken with ice or lengthened with soda or juice, and it is built for long drinks rather than for sipping neat.
In the glass it behaves like a mild vodka with the lemon already added: you do not need to bring nearly as much acid of your own. The house suggestions are a Lemon Drop or a Tom Collins, but it also works with plain sparkling water and a slice of lemon.
Tasting notes
Nose
Fresh lemon peel first, bright and light. Behind it sits a mild sweetness and a trace of elderflower.
Palate
Tart and crisp with the lemon up front. Sweetness is present but takes up less room than in the rest of the range, and the vodka base gives structure without sharpness.
Finish
Short and dry. The citrus peel lingers for a moment, and there is no syrupy tail behind it.

Did you know?
One of the range’s best known drinks was invented behind the bar at the old Crazy Daisy in Haderslev. A bartender mixed the caramel variant with lime and green soda, and the result was named Champusbrus because it tasted like the ice lolly of the same name.

Cuba Orange Flavored Vodka 70 cl 30%

Item no.: 22227865479-10132

Pour it out and you get blue. Taste it and you get orange. Cuba Orange is one of the few bottles where colour and flavour deliberately disagree, and that is exactly why it ends up in so many drinks.
Expert description
Cuba Orange is a Danish Vodka Spirit Drink from Spritfabrikken Danmark in Kolding, made with triple distilled vodka flavoured with sweet oranges and bottled at 30%.
The clear blue colour is not a mistake but the whole point. It makes it easy to build drinks that look like something without keeping blue curacao on the shelf. Mixed with clear soda the glass turns turquoise, and with orange juice it lands somewhere between green and brown.
On the palate this is ripe orange rather than orange peel. The sweetness is obvious, the acidity is held back, and the base is vodka distilled three times. The strength of 30% is why the label reads spirit drink made with vodka instead of vodka.
The house classic is called Isbjørn and consists of Cuba Orange and Sprite, while Viper uses lemon soda. The producer also points to a less obvious route: a splash in coffee, topped with whipped cream and grated chocolate.
Tasting notes
Nose
Sweet orange straight away, more juice than peel. Behind it sits a light candied edge and a touch of sugar.
Palate
Juicy and round. The orange fills the middle with barely any acidity, and the vodka stays below the surface the whole way through.
Finish
Short and sweet with a last brush of citrus before the sugar lets go.

Did you know?
The name Cuba has nothing to do with the island. It was chosen in 1998 because it suggested beach, party, colour and salsa, and the entire range is developed and produced in Denmark.
