I was served this as a 50ml mini bottle on a recent flight, so held on to one to taste neat in real life. Clear and weak coating legs in the glass. Nose is light ethanol and floral vanilla or honeysuckle. In the mouth, ditto. Sweet and soft. Little mouthfeel. Finish shows some grain and sweetgrass. Fairly long, with lingering floral sweetness. Clean, no funky bitter ethanol flavors. It's vodka, an essentially tasteless ethanol that's meant to be a non-offensive vehicle for other flavorings. This Finlandia is fine. I've had more interesting potato and rye vodkas, and much much MUCH worse vodkas, but this barley distillate proofed with spring water is fine. Fine is the word, cuz... it's vodka. The 101 proof version would be fine, maybe more interesting, but fine too. Ok, fine, I'm done here.
