LIBRARIAN'S VERDICT

Serious vodka for the purist. The 44% proof adds a welcome weight and authority to the spirit.

The Library Note

The V44 recipe claims to be based on a Baltic document from 1405—considered the world's oldest recorded vodka recipe. Its name refers to the 44th sample variation, which was chosen for its perfect balance of high alcohol and smooth texture.
