Fair Quinoa Vodka (700ml)

Fairtrade promotes fairer trading conditions for farmers & workers so they can invest in a better future for themselves and their communities. FAIR Vodka is the first vodka in the world certified Fair Trade. It guarantees higher margins to the farmers and donates 2.5% of its turnover to finance local development programs. Produced using Bolivian quinoa seeds cultivated according to the methods of organic farming, it took almost two years of research & development between Bolivian producers and French distillers and involves a double brewing operation, and subsequent distillation. The quinoa grain is shipped to France where it's distilled in Cognac via column still, before being blended with wheat based spirit.

Tasting notes Brilliant crystal clear appearance. Moderate, semi sweet, cream, sponge cake and mild white pepper aromas are backed up by suggestions of lemon tart. A creamy entry follows through in a sustained, white pepper and lemon tart / lozenge profile and a drying minerally finish with the peppery sensation carrying the flavours with outstanding length. 40% Alc/Vol.

Other reviews... Clear. Very neutral aromas and flavors suggest cream, cake, and minerals with a very soft, dryish light-to-medium body and a exquisitely smooth custard, dried fruit, and limestone accented finish. A superbly silky, elegant, and delicious vodka that is fantastic on its own and will be perfect in cocktails.
