Finlandia vodka was founded in Finland in 1970. Entering the U.S. market in 1971, it was the first imported vodka brand in the U.S. and was classified as a premium brand. In 2017, Finnish vodka ranked among the world's leading spirits brands in terms of brand value, and is one of the main premium vodka brands in the European and American markets.
Finnish vodka is brewed from locally grown six rows of barley. Liupai barley has a high starch content, and more enzymes make it have strong saccharification ability, which can be fully fermented and produce higher concentration of alcohol; In addition, it has a low fat content, so the sake is light and has a refreshing taste. The water source is glacial spring water, which is naturally filtered through the moraine rocks, and the water is naturally clean and does not require any other treatment. After brewing, the barley is continuously distilled in more than 200 steps. During the distillation process, the vast majority of impurities such as fusel and oil are removed, which makes the distilled alcohol thick and granular.
There are currently two neutral vodkas in Finland, the brand's flagship Classic Vodka, which has an alcohol content of 40%, a light body with a light vanilla aroma, and a fresh and sweet taste with typical black pepper and bread notes. This internationally award-winning vodka is ideal for cocktails due to its superior water quality and high purity; Mix it with orange juice in a 1:2 ratio and the classic cocktail screwdriver (Screwdriver) is done.
Flavored vodka comes in 9 flavors; Both grapefruit and blackcurrant have won awards at international spirits competitions. Grapefruit flavored vodka has a top rating of 96 on Wine Enthusiast's rating for its fresh acidity and juicy taste, making it one of the most recommended flavored vodkas.
Unlike other Nordic vodkas, the brand is flashy in its design: the bottle is designed with a frozen texture, and the textured glass sparkles like the surface of an icicle, conveying the impression of extreme cold from the Arctic. The bottle is full of design, beautiful and chic, and has a high collection value.
In the U.S. market, a 750ml bottle of Classic Vodka costs around $16, which is an affordable vodka and cost-effective. However, it has not entered the Chinese market for the time being, and if you have the opportunity to buy it, it is still worth a try.
