Absolut · Vanilia Vodka · Sweden · 1 Liter

Character & Style

In the supplied 95-point Wine Enthusiast review, vanilla-bean aromas develop from assertive and bitter to fuller and sweeter. The palate combines vanilla and cocoa-bean flavors, finishing long, semisweet, and intensely vanilla-like.

Expert Review

Wine Enthusiast · 95 Points
Offers an intensely bean-like aroma that's assertive and properly bitter; with further time the fragrance turns plumper and sweeter. Palate entry is clean, acidic and bittersweet; by midpalate, the flavor profile displays focused, well-knit tastes of vanilla bean and cocoa bean. Aftertaste is long, semisweet and intensely vanilla-like.

Producer Description

Absolut
Absolut Vanilia was introduced in 2003. Basically because vanilla is one of the most beloved flavors in the world. And it wasn’t long until that fact was reinforced through the instant success of Absolut Vanilia – it is almost equally popular as vanilla itself.

Serving Suggestions

Try it in an espresso martini for a vanilla accent, mix with cola over ice, or use in a chocolate-inspired cocktail. For a simpler serve, try soda water and adjust the proportions to taste.

Producer Description 

Nikka Coffey Vodka is distilled from corn and malted barley at the Miyagikyo Distillery near Sendai. The secret behind this vodka is the unique flavor generated by Coffey stills (named after its inventory Aeneas Coffey), which were imported from Scotland in 1963 and yield a distillate with more rich texture than modern column stills.

Nikka Coffey Vodka is excellent in cocktail, especially due to balanced texture. Recommended for Bloody Mary, Vodka Martini, Salty Dog, and Moscow Mule. 

Producer Description 

MARCONI 42 is an Italian gin obtained from an infusion that recalls the light, heat and intense aroma that characterize the Italian Mediterranean scrub. Juniper berries, Rosemary, Mint, Basil and Thyme give a fragrant aroma of herbs and medicinal plants.

Transparent crystalline Colour. Intense juniper, fresh and herbal fragrant; recalls a bouquet of aromatic plants rubbed through the hands. Smooth and mild. 

Producer Description 

How to describe this American Dry Gin? The main punch comes from juniper (naturally) but with a creative twist. Greenhook Ginsmiths adds nine botanicals to a base spirit distilled from organic grown wheat. The uniqueness of the distillation process creates a bright, vibrant and nuanced gin that is a perfect balance between our herbal, floral and citrus components: elderflower, cinnamon and chamomile. It’s a mix unlike any other.

Producer Description 

Water, alcohol, sugar, pears and burnt sugar are blended together in refrigerated vats. When the alcohol content reaches a desirable level, the mixture is then filtered and bottled.

Cappelletti · Specialino · Vino Aperitivo Americano Rosso · Trentino-Alto Adige · Italy

Made just outside of Trento in Alto Adige by the Cappelletti family, Specialino may be the oldest style of classic red bitter still in production — and it remains one of the most distinctive. Unlike its larger commercial rivals, Cappelletti is less sweet, built on a genuine wine base rather than a neutral spirit, and colored with natural carmine for its deep crimson hue. The result is a bitter aperitivo with real vinous texture, a vibrant herbal and citrus profile, and a wonderfully dry, refreshing finish that sets it apart from every other red bitter on the shelf.

The Specialino’s history is intertwined with the Spritz itself — the classic Triveneto combination of red bitter, wine, soda, and a slice of orange that predates the modern Aperol version by generations. In a Negroni, it brings dryness and complexity. In a Spritz, it delivers appetite-whetting bitterness without the cloying sweetness of its commercial counterparts. A true aperitivo in the original sense: less sweet, more honest, and built for the table.

• Producer: Cappelletti Family, Trento, Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy
• Style: Vino Aperitivo Americano Rosso (wine-based red bitter)
• Base: Wine (not neutral spirit)
• Color: Natural carmine — deep crimson
• Size: 750ml
• Tasting Notes: Vibrant herbal bitters, citrus, dried botanicals, vinous texture, dry and refreshing finish
• Serve: Spritz (red bitter + wine + soda + orange slice), Negroni, or on the rocks with soda
• Pairings: Charcuterie, olives, aged cheeses, fried snacks, pre-dinner aperitivo spread

Trentino-Alto Adige — the original wine-based red bitter. Less sweet, more complex, and built for the true aperitivo hour.

Only the outermost zest is used, steeped in high-proof spirit to capture all the lemon’s typical flavors. Awarded 90 points by Wine Enthusiast. Best enjoyed frozen.

Concentrated buttercup yellow in color. The nose is candied lemon peel — clean and true to the fruit. On the palate, lemon lollipop intensity from start to finish, with generous sweetness and a pleasant white pepper tingle on the exit.

Wine Enthusiast 90 — "A concentrated buttercup yellow and mild candied lemon peel aroma leads into a lemon lollipop palate. Sweetness follows through from start to finish, plus a bit of white pepper tingle into the exit. Made with Sorrento lemon peels."

Christian Drouin Sélection Calvados — Coudray-Rabut, Normandy | 700ml

Christian Drouin is one of Normandy’s most celebrated Calvados houses — and the Sélection is its most approachable, versatile expression. Produced at the family estate in Coudray-Rabut in the heart of the Pays d’Auge, this Calvados achieves its signature harmony by combining the sharp freshness of perry pears with the smoothness of cider apples. The ciders and perries are distilled in a traditional column still and aged in old, lightly used oak casks that preserve the subtle balance of fresh fruit without imposing heavy wood character. The result is a Calvados of rare elegance and accessibility — equally at home as an aperitif, a cocktail base, or a culinary ingredient.

The nose is inviting and fragrant: fresh apple, ripe pear, and a gentle lift of orchard blossom. On the palate, it is smooth and well-balanced, with the bright acidity of perry pear framed by the roundness of cider apple and a clean, lightly spiced finish. It drinks beautifully long over ice with tonic, or neat as a digestif.

• Producer: Christian Drouin, Coudray-Rabut, Pays d’Auge, Normandy, France
• Expression: Sélection
• Style: Calvados AOC — apple & pear eau-de-vie, column still
• Size: 700ml

Ron del Barrilito · Two Stars · Calidad Extra · Aged Rum · Puerto Rico · 750ml

Ron del Barrilito is Puerto Rico's most storied rum — a family-made spirit produced at the Hacienda Santa Ana in Bayamón, where the Fernandez family has been aging rum in small oak barrels since 1880. Unlike the large industrial producers that dominate the Caribbean rum category, Ron del Barrilito is made in tiny quantities using traditional methods: aged for a minimum of three years in ex-Oloroso sherry casks, bottled by hand, and released without chill filtration or artificial coloring. The Two Stars “Calidad Extra” is the entry point into the Barrilito range — and it is already a rum of remarkable character and complexity. At $31.99, this is one of the most authentic and underappreciated spirits in the category.

Natural bronze in the glass with a warm, inviting nose of dried plum, almond, apricot, and vanilla, layered with subtle smoky and woody notes from the sherry cask aging. On the palate: light-to-medium bodied and beautifully balanced, with caramelized fruit, sugar cane sweetness, and a delicate, lasting oak finish that lingers long after the glass is empty. Exceptional neat or on the rocks; also outstanding in a classic rum cocktail — a Daiquiri, Old Fashioned, or simply with a splash of soda water.

Crop Harvest Earth Meyer Lemon Vodka — USA

Crop Harvest Earth is an American artisanal spirits brand built on a simple but powerful idea: that the best vodka starts with the best ingredients, grown responsibly from the earth. Crop Meyer Lemon Vodka is crafted from organically grown Meyer lemons — the prized hybrid citrus known for its sweeter, more floral character compared to standard lemons — and distilled to capture the authentic brightness and balance of the fruit in its purest form. At 70 proof, it is lighter and more delicate than standard vodka, designed to let the natural Meyer lemon character shine through in cocktails and sipping alike. The result is a refreshing, versatile citrus vodka that delivers the perfect balance between sweet and tart — a genuine expression of one of America's most beloved citrus fruits.

The nose is bright and inviting — fresh Meyer lemon zest, white floral notes, and a hint of sweetness that sets it apart from sharper citrus vodkas. On the palate, it is crisp and clean with the distinctive sweet-tart balance of a perfectly ripe Meyer lemon, finishing with a refreshing citrus lift. Wonderful with club soda, in a cosmopolitan, or as the key ingredient in a lemon drop martini — versatile enough to complement any cocktail.

San Bartolo Mezcal Artesanal is a unique Mexican spirit of yore distilled by four generations of Maestros Mezcaleros in the San Bartolo Yautepec valley in Oaxaca. It has delicate herbal and fresh mineral notes with a particular clean smoke. The creation of this Mezcal has been made possible by the hard work and tradition of the people of the Yautepec Valley and Valentin Martinez Lopez, Maestro Mezcalero.

A beautifully complex mezcal, with notes of dried aromatic herbs, clean minerality, and just a hint of smoke. Enrique Diaz Cruz is a 5th generation Maestro Mezcalero, crafting sustainably farmed mezcals with a distinctive personality.

Ketel One Botanical is the result of more than 300 years of Nolet family distilling expertise, reimagined for a lighter, more natural drinking experience. Crafted at the family distillery in Schiedam, Holland, each expression in the Botanical Series is made by distilling Ketel One vodka with real botanicals and infusing it with natural fruit essence — with no sugar, no artificial sweeteners and no artificial flavors. The result is a spirit that is genuinely fresh, clean and crisp.

Peach & Orange Blossom is the lush, fragrant expression of the series — built around the juicy sweetness of white peach and the delicate floral lift of orange blossom. Each botanical essence is individually and naturally obtained through innovative extraction methods and distillation processes, ensuring the freshest possible character in every pour. At 30% ABV, it is lighter than traditional vodka and exceptionally versatile.
