About Vodka
Vodka’s name comes from “voda,” the Russian word for water. It is made from a variety of grains, such as sorghum, corn, rye or wheat, and sometimes from potatoes, molasses, grapes, rice, or sugar. The base ingredient is fermented, and yeasts turn the sugars into alcohol. Then it’s distilled (usually at least three times) to extract the alcohol.
Vodka is too strong to drink immediately after distillation, so purified water is added to bring it back down to a bottling proof, which is typically 80 proof, or 40 percent alcohol, by volume.
Vodka that is not flavored is usually clear and has no distinct flavor or smell. It makes a great ingredient in cocktails. Flavored vodka has a special flavor and aroma added to it. The most popular are fruits (cherries, citrus, berries, pomegranate, etc.), chocolate and coffee.
Smirnoff & Its Russian Connection
- Introduced in the 1860s by Pyotr Arsenievich Smirnov, this vodka brand has its origins in Moscow. His vodka was reportedly a favorite of the Tsar of Russia. When he died in 1898, Smirnov was one of the richest men in Russia.
- The vodka is filtered to remove impurities using a charcoal filtration method developed by Smirnov and is available in more than 30 flavors. The original filtration method is still used today.
- Smirnov made “charitable contributions” that encouraged the Russian clergy to change its mind on the evils of the drink and stop its anti-vodka sermons. Sales massively increased and proved that a little bit of bribery can sometimes pay off!
