Samovar – Slower Pulse


[38,5%, sampled in Azerbaijan]

Right here we go along with the second instalment of my Sheki vodka experiment. This one was known as Samovar (Самоварь), a reputation that made me blissful as a result of I really like samovars, I actually do.

good bottles fear me generally

First issues first, Samovar value 5 Manat for a bottle of 500ml (or 4€ for 700ml). Costs in Azerbaijan have been about as little as in Central Asia, which meant that I wasn’t even shocked anymore.

However once I examined the bottle, I all of a sudden felt apprehensive. Each the identify and the bottle design gave me hope: the ornaments on the glass, the pleasantly easy label design, the seal on the cap, the little piece of twine across the prime.

It was a nice-looking bottle with an superior identify. I didn’t need it to suck.

once more with the cork cap

The very first thing I noticed once I opened the bottle was that it, too, had a cork cap. So I went again and subtracted one level from the design rating. The reason being {that a} cork cap on a vodka bottle solely is sensible when you’re planning to drink it multi function go. And I don’t wish to have to do this.

chilly cookies

Samovar has a delicate and refined odour, which leads me to guess that the distillation course of has most likely been fairly clear {and professional}. Good.

The style turned out to be very chilly at first, however there was additionally one thing flowery and candy to it. It burned a bit of on the best way down, although not an excessive amount of.

The aftertaste was odd. It carried over a few of that coldness, however in some way there appeared to be a be aware of cookies in it. I attempted this a number of occasions simply to make certain. And sure, there was a faint style of cookies.

Total, Samovar vodka was good. It didn’t blow me away, but it surely didn’t disappoint me, both.
