4 Stars (5) / Highly Recommended -Spirit Journal
"Pristine appearance. Lovely, clean and intense aroma of tangerine is full and squeaky tart in the first whiffs; aeration serves to
bring out zesty, spot-on scents of lemon juice and lemon peel. In the mouth, the crisp, razor-edged lemon taste dominates from
entry into midpalate. Finishes tangy, pleasantly tart and irresistibly fresh. A superb, prototypical flavored vodka. Best Buy." -Wine

89 Points -Beverage Testing Institute
"The nose leaps from the glass in sweet/sour waves of ripe orange and orange hard candy. The last whiff shows staying power as
the orange perfume is every bit as vivid and alluring as in the first inhalation. The mouth remains true to the good bouquet as both
the palate entry and the midpalate burst with ripe juicy orange flavor. The finish is long, citrusy acidic and pleasing."-Wine
Enthusiast

Absolut Peppar Vodka
Origin: Sweden
91 Points -Beverage Testing Institute
"Clear. Roasted-grilled peppers, green tomato and dried herbs. Bold, rich texture. Explosive, peppery flavors add great zest and
concentration to a full, weighty palate. Very well structured and delineated. Vodka Margarita anyone? Try this with your nachos."-
Beverage Tasting Institute

Absolut Raspberri Vodka
Origin: Sweden
85-89 Points -Wine Enthusiast
"The opening perfume is extremely raspberry-like; aeration tones down the jammy intensity a little as the bouquet turns seed-like.
The palate entry is fruity, mildly sweet, ripe and pleasant; at mid-palate there's a slight embers-on-the-tongue warmth that
accompanies the ripe raspberry flavor. Ends comfortably fruity and acidic." -Wine Enthusiast

Origin: USA
Blood Oranges are festive. When you cut them open, the inside is red and juicy. The juice has been described as a spicy berry
orange. It's delicious and getting popular here in the United States.

the air. Enjoy the delicate tartness, the fresh flavors...and the way it adds so much complexity to your favorite cocktail.

Charbay Ruby Red Grapefruit Vodka
Origin: USA
The Charbay line of artisan flavored vodkas has gotten a fair amount of attention in recent years, and Charbay Ruby Red
Grapefruit showed why. This was sweet, soft and grapefruit, a pretty vodka with a lot of flavor. It recalled candied grapefruit peel
and had some beeswax scents on the nose, and as one taster noted. "it's pithy, which is something I want to find in a grapefruit-
flavored liquor." -Wine & Spirits 'Do Yourself a Flavor'

nlandia Mango Infused Vodka
Origin: Finland
90-95 Points/Best Buy -Wine Enthusiast

perfume. The palate is silky, properly fruity, moderately sweet and ripe. Ends wonderfully, mango-like and firm. Best
Buy!" -Wine Enthusiast

Grey Goose Citron Vodka
Origin: France
90-95 Points -Wine Enthusiast
"Crystal clear. Opening whiffs are snappy, citrusy lemon peel; aeration allows the piquancy to soften as the bouquet becomes ripe,
moderately sweet and as sublime as lemon meringue pie. Palate entry is fresh, citrusy and intensely lemony; midpalate is lip-
puckeringly zesty and cleansing. Finishes tart and long." -Wine Enthusiast

Grey Goose L'Orange Vodka
Origin: France

95 Points -Wine Enthusiast
"Candied orange aromas mingle with a faint peppery backdrop on the nose of this clear vodka. The body is medium, and
the palate is initially a little too sweet, but as it develops, the orange flavor becomes drier and drier until it’s almost
astringent. The finish is crisp and clean and the orange flavors linger in the mouth for a long time." -Wine Enthusiast

"Stunningly fresh and just-picked aromas of lemon and a trace of lime. Neither punchy nor pungent, this perfume is
delicately balanced. Astonishing bitter-citrus, fourth-gear taste at palate entry; the midpalate offers more of an oily
taste. The finish is as though I just bit into the peel of a citron; it’s that intense and real." -Wine Enthusiast

Hangar One Kaffir Lime Vodka
Origin: USA
Habersham Gold Star! -Tasted and Recommended by the Habersham Staff
96-100 Points -Wine Enthusiast
"Translucent, with minor sediment. The acute citrus-lime intensity of the bouquet is unlike anything I’ve experienced in 13 years of
spirits evaluation; the aroma slaps you in the face, forehand then backhand. The keen limey tartness at palate entry makes my face
twist; the midpalate is intriguingly sweet and sour. Aftertaste is intense, but manageably citrusy-limey and tart. For the ultimate
Vodka Gimlet." -Wine Enthusiast

Ketel One Citroen Vodka
Origin: Netherlands
90-95 Points -Wine Enthusiast
"The citrus infusion evident in the first whiff. With time the lemony scent becomes more pulpy and juicy than peel-like in the
second and third sniffings. By the fourth and final nosing, the bouquet remains remarkably vibrant and zesty. The palate entry is
richly, tartly lemony while the midpalate stage is citrusy and slightly sweet. The finish is very long, bone dry, and more peel-like. A
delicious and refreshing flavored vodka."-Wine Enthusiast

"Clear. Intense spicy blueberry aromas. A soft supple entry leads to a silky, glycerous, dry-yet-fruity medium-full body
of very pure crushed blueberry, honey, and spice flavors. Finishes with a long blueberry and peppery spice fade.
Excellent."

"Clear. Sweet ripe orange wedge and orange blossom aromas. A supple round entry leads to a satiny, off-dry medium-to full-
bodied palate with pure creamy orange, orange cake, and orange peel frosting, and mild spice flavors in fine balance. Finishes
with a sweet orange zest and creamy fade. Very nice, delicate, and purely flavored." -Beverage Tasting Institute

"The nose is hypnotically exotic and builds in intensity. The bouquet by the third sniffing is nutty, bean-like and shows faint echoes
of marzipan, vanilla cake frosting, and nougat. The taste concentrated and focused on vanilla bean. The midpalate captures the
pure essence of the vanilla beans which hail from Madagascar and Indonesia. Pour into orange juice for a great summer cocktail
or make a vanilla cola. Outstanding and decadent." -Wine Enthusiast

Svedka Citron
Origin: Sweden

Vincent Van Gogh Citroen Vodka
Origin: Netherlands
90-95 Points -Wine Enthusiast
"The opening nosing pass offers succulent, sweet and ripe scents of key limes and lemons. With air contact the aroma
becomes more focused on the tartness of lemon. The last sniffing sees hardly any diminishment even after ten
minutes in the glass. A well-knit, elegant citrus perfume that ranks with the best. Palate entry is mildly lemony,
understated, yet directed and firm while the midpalate features a ripe lemon flavor that’s more akin to pulp than zest.
The finish is long, intensely lemony-citrusy and delicious." -Wine Enthusiast

Vincent Van Gogh Dutch Chocolate Vodka
Origin: Netherlands
90-95 Points -Wine Enthusiast
Authentic bittersweet dark chocolate-cocoa aromas: a concentrated character that’s
as close to espresso as it is to cocoa powder. Palate entry is intensely bean-like and
bittersweet; midpalate is tight, as integrated flavors of cocoa butter and dark roasted
coffee bean provide a stimulating ride. The finish is bittersweet and long." -Wine
Enthusiast

"The supple bouquet has a strong coffee bean-like quality with additional scents of cocoa, road tar, roasted chestnut
and wood smoke. The palate entry and midpalate are nicely mellow with plenty of rich espresso character. Finishes
smoked and tar-like, with the coffee taking a back seat." -Wine Enthusiast

Vincent Van Gogh Oranje Vodka
Origin: Netherlands
94 Points -Wine Enthusiast
"This clear vodka bears sweet orange aromas, somewhat reminiscent of blood oranges, but with candied fruit
showing in the backdrop. The body is medium, and the palate is initially full of orange juice (not zest) flavor, and then
develops a sophisticated dryness. The finish is very long and refreshing." -Wine Enthusiast
