Stolichnaya - Elit 70cl Bottle

Product Description

Stolichnaya, the most prestigious vodka brand in the world reveals it's prized possession, Elit. Discover a remarkable combination of elegance & mystique. Nobility & purity. Prestige & pleasure. Elit's unmistakable purity is the result of the highest quality ingredients, centuries-old traditions & above all, a unique & revolutionary 'freezing' filtration process, specially developed & patented by the SPI Group. This expensive, labour & time consuming procedure filters the spirit at sub-zero temeratures reaching -18 C, so that the liquid's density increases causing all impurities to freeze aagainst the walls of the filtration tanks. These unwanted crystalline substances are then discarded from the distillate, allowing the selection of nothing but the purist of spirits for their select formaula of Elit. The result is a vodka like no other. A rare spirit that ranks among the finest & smoothest in the world, Elit. Tasting vodka is different from tasting other alcoholic drinks (including wine) because we are looking for an absence of flavour in vodka. Vodka is alcohol in it's purest form & the less flavour the better. Cheaper vodkas can have a pronounced burn on the back of the throat (the finish) due to a faster & cheaper filtration. Nose: Mellow, enigmatic, fresh aniseed & sherbet with a rounder, grainy arnish. Palate: Evolves from light to medium-bodied with a distinguished creamy aniseed character, garnished with savoury, lightly luscious spiciness & balancing dryness. Finish: Subtle, spicy aniseed.
