Vestal Black Cherry Vodka, 70 cl

Product Information

There's orange with undertone of lemon on the nose, all marmalade richness and zesty spritz, before a sip doubles down on all of that. Associated with stone fruit, citrus and pine when used in beer, it gives the clean, smooth vodka base a delightful lifting accent. It does have clear fragrant vanilla sweetness (but there’s no added sugar), with almost butterscotch notes yet simple freshness. They also rest the liquid in stainless steel open casks, which adds a surprisingly subtle but natural sweetness.

Although Moorland Spirit Co is primarily a gin producer, this vodka flavoured by Douglas fir tips is a diamond in its own right. The aromas are of creamy vanilla with light hints of cinnamon and jasmine, which carry through to the drinking on a lightly sweet base with murmurs of crisp apple and camomile. This follows up on tasting, too, with plenty of juicy sweet mango balanced by slight passion fruit tartness.

A flavoured vodka from Vestal, made with a base of its excellent Polish potato vodka (which is distilled and filtered only once, to keep the flavours of the potatoes intact) along with raspberries and blackcurrants. A great gift for cocktail lovers (this would add instant oomph to a passion fruit martini) or students.

Check out our guide on how to make flavoured vodka to get started with all the tips and tricks you need. Somewhat surprisingly, the essential element here is of blueberries, namely blueberry muffins, with a slightly cake-y edge on the fruit. There’s a flavoured vodka creation for every season: in summer, try elderflower and gooseberry vodka or strawberry and rhubarb vodka. This is the 2009 vintage Vestal Kaszebe, produced in Poland with Vineta potatoes grown in the Kaszebe region using a single distillation. Just like in baking, the vanilla enhances the flavour of your finished drink and can be endlessly versatile.

An obvious, and excellent, partner to a good apple juice, or simply enjoyed as a chilled shot straight from the freezer. This latest launch from a vodka industry stalwart adds a splash of fun to the world of flavoured vodkas. The variety of potato, the type of soil it was grown in, the growing season the harvest endure - they all play a part in what Vestal’s spirits take like.
