Finlandia's Lime Vodka takes the brand's characteristically clean Finnish base spirit and infuses it with essential oils of lime and natural lime aromas. The result is a refreshing, citrus-forward flavoured vodka that does its job with typical Finnish efficiency.
The nose is bright and genuinely limey — essential oils rather than synthetic flavouring — with a fresh, zesty quality that is immediately appealing. On the palate, the lime is clean and well-integrated, with a gentle sweetness that prevents any sharp acidity. The Finlandia base spirit keeps everything smooth and uncluttered.
This is a vodka built for the long drink. A Finlandia Lime and tonic with a squeeze of fresh lime is one of the easiest, most refreshing serves imaginable. It also works well in a Moscow Mule, where the lime complements the ginger beer beautifully, or in any cocktail that calls for vodka and lime.
At £21.50, it sits at the same price point as the rest of the Finlandia flavoured range, and it delivers the same reliable quality. A solid, unpretentious flavoured vodka that does exactly what it says on the bottle.
