Tasting Notes
"Putting your nose to the glass you get a gentle, sweet wheat aroma. It is very gentle in the mouth with a softness to the vodka. The mild wheat notes continue on the taste with just the tiniest of bites on the finish. Warming as you finish the drink. Classic and definitely one to add to the list if you prefer more neutral vodkas."
