Sauvelle Crafted French Vodka — Cognac Country Craft
Craft 41% ABV ABV Sauvelle MicrodistilleryGood but not great
Decent vodka for the price. The nose is clean — I got the Rich and creamy that the review mentions — but the palate didn't wow me. The Velvety and full-bodied is fine but nothing special, and I'd have preferred more character coming through. That said, the Long and warming is clean enough. Works well in cocktails where you don't need a premium bottle.
Expected more
Not terrible but not worth the premium. The nose promised Rich and creamy and vanilla and subtle oak influence from the wood filtration, but the palate is flat and the with a creamy sweetness and soft woody undertones disappears too quickly. I've had better vodkas at half the price. The Velvety and full-bodied the review describes wasn't apparent to me. Perhaps I got a bad bottle.
