Review: Stolichnaya Vodka

by Jeff Ellingson

Stolichnaya Vodka sometimes referred to as Stoli Red label or Stoli Original was launched in 1938.  It was first imported in the US in 1972 when PepsiCo was granted exportation rights to Stolichnaya Vodka in exchange for importation of Pepsi Cola into the Soviet Union.  Stolichnaya controls every aspect of making its vodka from the planting and selection of the wheat and rye grains grown on the company owned Rapuga farms in Tambov Russia, to harvesting, distillation, and bottling.  The wheat and rye grains are fermented for 60 hours, and then triple distilled.  Artesian water is blended with the spirit before it is filtered four times through Russian birch charcoal, quartz, sand, and woven cloth.The aroma is lime leaning citrus, marshmallow, and black licorice, with a crisp old school Russian vodka backing.  The creamy lime citrus entry is joined by fresh pastry flavor building to a lemon custard peak.  Stoli has a soft mineral mouth feel.  It fades with rye, vanilla, and charcoal taste and finishes dry, warm, and salty, with a peppery sting.  Served ice cold in a shot glass Stoli goes down smooth.  Served chilled in a martini glass, I enjoyed the flavor profile, but I find the finish a little dry and salty.
