[40%, sampled in Azerbaijan]
This one is the fourth and closing contender of the Sheki vodka experiment. It’s known as Stolichniy, and if the title reminds you of the formidable Stolichnaya, then you definately’re in all probability already a bit frightened that it’d develop into a disappointment.
clumsy design
This one value 5 Manat for 500ml, so once more it was a 4€/700ml deal. It positive is reasonably priced to get wasted within the Caucasian Mountains.
The bottle design appeared previous in a foul method. And I don’t imply old-old, however slightly previous within the sense that the designers had wished it too appear previous perhaps a decade or two in the past. It appeared clumsy. Additionally, it was one other bottle with a cork cap.
The entire thing had an air of one thing that you’d drink with the intention to get drunk.
the softness
There was a robust scent after I opened the bottle, one thing like industrial alcohol that was slightly off-putting. I hesitated to take a sip, however after I did, the style was chilly and smooth, and the vodka went down simply. It was significantly better than I had been anticipating.
The aftertaste alternatively was weak and considerably boring. There wasn’t any vital warming sensation, and only a faint aroma of metallic.
General, Stolichniy vodka was higher than the bottle design recommended and worse than the title promised.
