Review: Effen Yuzu Citrus Vodka

Effen Yuzu Citrus Vodka was just released.  It joins a flavor lineup that includes, Green Apple, Raspberry, Black Cherry, Cucumber, Blood Orange, and Rose.  Yuzu fruit originated in China, and grows to the size of a tangerine.  The Effen vodka base is made from premium wheat grown in Northern Holland.  Effen uses a continuous distillation process where the liquid circulates within giant stainless steel columns and is effectively distilled hundreds of times.  Heating during distillation occurs at temperatures below 85 degrees creating a vodka without any trace of burnt sugar.  Effen is filtered 5 times through active carbon.  Pure spring water filtered through reverse osmosis is blended with the vodka for several days to reduce to proof.  Natural yuzu and citrus flavors are infused before bottling at 75 proof in a yellow polymer sleeved bottle.
