Serve it well chilled in small glasses, the traditional way, alongside pickles, rye bread, cured fish or salo. It also works as a clean base for a vodka tonic, a Moscow mule or a Bloody Mary.
- Vodka from Ukraine, first launched in 1998
- Wheat grain spirit with an oat infusion
- Silver filtered, 37.5% ABV
The aroma is clean and neutral with a light grain sweetness. On the palate it is soft and rounded, with a gentle cereal note from the oats and a crisp, short finish.
Khortytsa takes its name from Khortytsia, the large island in the Dnipro River at Zaporizhzhia, long linked with the Cossacks. The brand began in 1998 and is now sold well beyond Ukraine. The Classic is the recipe the rest of the range is built on, with no flavourings beyond the oat infusion.
A sound choice for anyone who wants a straightforward Eastern European vodka in a 500ml bottle.
