View All (24)I can see why people rate this but it's not quite my favourite. The Bright lemon zest and lime with a fresh is clean — really approachable — but the palate is a touch too neutral for my preferences. The Well-balanced sweetness is smooth and easy, which makes it good for vodka newcomers. I was expecting a bit more character given the editorial score.
4 May 2026Picked this up after reading the review here and it's everything they said and more. The Bright lemon zest and lime with a fresh drew me in from the first pour. On the palate, Well-balanced sweetness are elegant rather than aggressive — exactly what you want from a quality vodka. The Clean and citrusy with a refreshing fade is clean and inviting. Makes a brilliant Martini and equally good sipped neat. This will be a permanent fixture on my shelf.
29 April 2026Not terrible but not worth the premium. The nose promised Bright lemon zest and lime with a fresh and some depth, but the palate is flat and the Clean and citrusy with a refreshing fade disappears too quickly. I've had better vodkas at half the price. The Well-balanced sweetness the review describes wasn't apparent to me. Perhaps I got a bad bottle.
