Vivid — dark berries, blackcurrant, sweet fruitiness.
Smooth — dark fruit sweetness, berry tartness, clean backbone.
Medium — dark fruit lingering.
Boe brings the dark fruits flavour trend to vodka — blackcurrant, blackberry, and berry sweetness over a clean grain base. At 40% ABV, it has enough strength to carry the fruit without becoming a liqueur.
The nose is vivid: dark berries, blackcurrant, and a sweet fruitiness. The palate is smooth — dark fruit sweetness, berry tartness, and a clean vodka backbone. The finish is medium with dark fruit lingering.
Better than expected
Mixed feelings. On the nose I got the Vivid — dark berries — that part is nice. But the Smooth — dark fruit sweetness didn't match the promise for me. Mid-palate feels a bit thin. Still, it's better than many bottles at this price and the Medium — dark fruit lingering is reasonable. Worth trying at least once, especially in a Martini.
