Ruskova Vodka (SEPT 09 REVIEW)

Ruskova Vodka:

Sweet pastry dough, anise, and white pepper aromas. A round delicate entry leads to a silky, dryish medium- bodied palate with sweet wheat dough, frosting, and star anise, delicate spice, and white pepper flavors. Finishes with a long peppery, anise cookie and mineral water fade, and a touch of peppery, warming heat. A tasty, rather exotic vodka with a great smooth texture and distinctive spicy flavor that will add a unique dimension to cocktails.
