Chopin Wheat Vodka

A crisp, wheat vodka from Poland that has an aromatic birth with hints of grain, fruit, herbs & spices; while an off-dry & silky life adds hints of anise, citrus & orange blossom; that led to a quick & balanced death with a touch of powder sugar & minerality. July / November 2017

You know what you're getting. A bit pricer than I'd prefer for the ethanol punch that accompanies it.

Rating: 17/23 Bottle kill tasting. Not that the neck pour differs much from the kill pour for vodka (at least, I don't think it does). N: Not much but there is sort of a bread crust scent. It's vodka, so what do you expect? P: Smooth, round, mildly sweet, decently viscous and full. This is really nice. It's peppery as well, but not in a harsh way. This is one of those rare vodkas that seems genuinely sippable. I do get a bit of wheat bread crust going on and the alcohol is pretty much not there. The bread crust kind of turns into mild white bread. Some sweet water. F: Lingering pepper with sweet water. Faint fresh wheat. - Conclusion - This is a really nice vodka. In fact, it's the best I've had. It's enjoyable neat, though even so it can't compete with a good bottle of whiskey.

Outstanding!! Love how smooth this is. Top shelf.

As smooth as silk!! Enjoyed with Soda and a twist of lime.
