Koskenkorva Finnish Vodka, 70cl, Made from Barley Grown in Arctic ClimateBy Winebuyers

Koskenkorva Vodka is made from barley grown in the arctic climate of its eponymous village. Most of the grain used to make this vodka is sourced from within a 200km radius of Koskenkorva village, giving it a true sense of place. Produced by continuous distillation, Koskenkorva Vodka is committed to sustainability, using leftover barley husks to power its distillery, byproduct starch to turn into animal feed, and carbon dioxide to aid greenhouse cultivation. This vodka is delicious in pure, unfussy drinks, such as vodka and tonic or vodka and soda. It's also great in the Brewster cocktail, made with Koskenkorva Vodka, cold-brew coffee, and maple syrup. The nose has a hint of fresh coriander and mint, as well as a slight licorice sweetness. The palate is quite dry with a wonderful woody spice and bursts of fresh red chilli and lemongrass. A warm sensation lingers on the finish, staying at the front. Koskenkorva Vodka is a unisex spirit, perfect for anyone to enjoy.
