[44%, sampled in Luxembourg]
Oh, how I might have liked to create a brand new nation class for this one: Greenland! It says so on the label of Isfjord vodka: PURE ICEBERG WATER and GREENLAND.
However then Greenland belongs to Denmark, and after I checked the Isfjord web site I realized that the corporate headquarters had been situated close to Kopenhagen. So I made a decision to easily listing it as a Danish vodka.
the glug
The very first thing I seen about Isfjord was its price ticket. At a steep 38€ for 700ml, it was much more costly than Mansfeld. However then it was imagined to be made with PURE ICEBERG WATER. It couldn’t probably be inexpensive.
The bottle has a slick and glossy look, and the glass feels fairly huge. The one factor I didn’t like was the quantity of textual content on the label.
There may be one other factor, although: that is a type of bottles which have an excellent pouring sound, particularly when it’s nearly full. The best way it goes “glug-glug-glug-glug” is nothing wanting pleasant.
Isfjord burns greater than an iceberg
So. Does utilizing PURE ICEBERG WATER make any distinction in relation to style?
The very first thing I seen after I opened the bottle was a surprisingly sturdy alcoholic scent. The style wasn’t unhealthy, although – it was barely candy and a bit tough across the edges. It even burned a bit on the way in which down, however I figured the alcohol content material of 44% most likely made a little bit of a distinction. Additionally, I discovered it fairly nice.
The aftertaste was fascinating as effectively: there wasn’t a lot of the sweetness from the preliminary style, however a dryish aroma that jogged my memory of walnuts. And it was lasting.
Total, Isfjord is pricey however good, and it goes effectively with pickled greens.
