![]() ![]() The distillery had also said that with really good vodkas you can drink them at room temperature, with no need to put them in the fridge or freezer first. ![]() I saved Purity’s comparison challenge till later, first trying their 34x version on its own. They’re solid, chunky, dimpled bottles, and my first thought was that when they were empty you could steam off the label and do something creative with them, like turning them into a lamp or filling them with something colourful and putting them on display.īefore you can do that, of course, you have to empty them. When the two bottles arrived, I was impressed by them. This was passion and confidence in their vodkas. With respect for the environment and our choice of pure, organic ingredients Purity Vodka is a truly an elevated spirit in its class. When these key ingredients are slowly blended, over low heat, together with mineral-rich water taken from the source, magic begins to happen. The winter wheat is clean, crisp and elegant while the barley adds texture and body to every mouthful. Our distinct recipe relies on organic winter wheat and malted barley, combined to create a spirit rich in flavor, complexity and smoothness. Other vodkas can claim to be organic, but it involves a lot of paperwork and money to get the official organic certification, and some distilleries simply don’t bother. Purity’s vodkas are among the few in the world that are Certified Organic. They invited me not only to compare them to each other, but to do a comparison tasting with other brand-name vodkas, and see what I thought. ![]() It’s not the bottle itself, though I appreciate a good bottle, and it’s not in how many times it’s been distilled, so I was a bit wary of Purity wanting to send me a bottle of vodka distilled 34 times, and one distilled 51 times. In any case, sometimes the stories sound like hype, and the ultimate test is always the taste of what’s in the bottle. It’s best to take this with a pinch of salt as everyone should think their product is good, otherwise why put all that effort and money into producing it? When people offer to send me spirit samples, they naturally tell me how good their product is and why I ought to try it. A solid choice for upscale cocktails.Purity vodkas have won numerous awards, including ‘Best Vodka of the Year’, so just how good are they? Mild aromas of pastry, anise, and dried fruit with a buoyant dryish medium body and a creamy custard, peppery spice, honeycomb, and chalk finish. Smooth, full-bodied and loaded with character, Purity Vodka is an ultra-premium vodka brimming with distinctive mineral notes, complemented by delicate tones of white chocolate, vanilla and liquorice. After distillation, the heart of the spirit is blended with the very finest organic wheat spirit and reduced to 40% ABV with natural, mineral-rich water from the castle's artesian well. The remaining spirit is so refined that no filtration is necessary, which retains the character, body and smoothness of the pot still distillation. ![]() During its thirty-four distillations, ninety percent of the distillate is lost. Unlike other vodka producers, Purity has developed a still designed specifically for vodka production. Created from estate grown winter wheat and barley, Purity Vodka is produced in a proprietary pot still at Ellinge Castle in the south of Sweden. ![]()
