And it’s proved to be a hit around the globe in clubs, pubs, restaurants and up-market drinking establishment.

A creative spirit with hints of plum, apricot, wild honey, citrus and white fruit blossoms, culminating in a long-lasting finish. Well, it’s described as having a harmonious balance of white fruit blossom, honeysuckle and violet with hints of apricot and a long, lingering finish. The Grey Goose VX bottle does disclose that it’s a blend of 95% Vodka and 5% Cognac, the same ratio that’s common with spirit whiskey.After the wheat grain is fermented and distilled into a high-proof spirit, it travels south to Gensac-La-Pallue, in the Cognac, Arrondissement(Region), France, where it is blended with the remarkably pristine spring water found there.

Grey Goose VX Vodka is an extremely limited-edition “Vodka Exceptionelle”, released in 2014 as an exclusive blend for the travel retail industry. While we don’t think vodka is going to lose its dominance any time soon, the landscape is clearly changing, and brands have no maps to navigate the road ahead.It was created by Maître de Chais François Thibault as a synthesis of his manufacturing career, resulting in an impeccable blend of 95% vodka with a 5% cognac finish. We can understand Bacardi’s interest in re-elevating the Grey Goose brand to try to pull it out of a head-to-head battle with brands like Tito’s, but they’ve gone too far with their pricing for VX. This new expression combines both the famous taste of Grey Goose vodka with cognac from the premier cru region of Grande Champagne. GREY GOOSE® La Poire Flavoured Vodka is ripe with the essence of juicy Anjou pears and mixes flawlessly with fresh citrus and sweet spices to create this autumn martini cocktail.

Our dream is to rejuvenate the world of Cognac, and to get rid of the tweed and cigar image that has been associated with the spirit for so long. This pear martini cocktail highlights the vibrant taste of GREY GOOSE® La Poire Flavoured Vodka with deliciously balanced and subtly sweet, crisp flavours to perfectly feature the essence of the prized Anjou pear used in its creation. The producers also say that the shape of the bottle has been inspired from other prestigious French decanters, but still retaining the contemporary feel of the original bottle of Grey Goose Vodka. The VX in the name stands for ‘Vodka Exceptionelle, and it’s interesting that the makers recommend drinking it on the rocks, from a balloon brandy glass for the best taste experience.If you want a drink for those cold winter nights this is the one especially as it has a hint of Cognac in it. Its signature smoothness and distinct character are the result of an extraordinary passion for spirit making and an unparalleled commitment to the highest possible quality. The midpalate is a continuation of many of the flavors introduced in the opening, with raisin and dried apricot most pronounced. Now that the flavored vodka boom is clearly ending, vodka companies are scrambling to figure out ways to hold on to their growth and remain relevant in a marketplace that is increasingly shifting towards whiskey.
