Review: Finlandia Raspberry Vodka

by Jeff Ellingson

Finlandia Raspberry vodka - CopyFinlandia Raspberry vodka was released in July 2011.  It is one of ten flavored vodka’s they craft in Kaskenkora Finland.  They start with the finest six row barley.  After the barley is fermented, a seven column continuous distillation process is used with more than 200 distillation steps to remove impurities.  Pure glacial water from the Rajamaki Spring is blended to reduce the proof.  All natural raspberry flavor is infused before bottling at 75 proof.The aroma is fresh picked raspberry and strawberry.  The sweet berry entry is lead by raspberry with strawberry flavor adding sweetness and balancing the natural tartness of the raspberry.  That tart raspberry taste arrives at the midpoint providing a tart flavor peak.  The finish is smooth with a sprinkle of pepper providing a mild sting, and leaving a hint of chocolate flavor.
