Arbikie Strawberry Vodka Review
While this Scottish distillery’s standard vodka, Arbikie Nàdar (well, as standard as a vodka distilled from green peas can be!) is top-notch, their Strawberry Vodka is one of the best spirits in the world, full stop. Though somewhat muted on the nose, the palate is bursting with fresh strawberry flavor — not the sort of synthetic note you expect from a flavored vodka — in such a cohesive way you’ll swear it’s strawberry distillate. (The higher 50 percent ABV is much appreciated.) Long a cult classic among those in the know, this is the rare vodka meant to be sipped neat.
