Hanson of Sonoma Habanero Review
In the vast realm of chili-spiced spirits, this vodka is seriously impressive. Distinctive habanero aromas set things off with a fiery bang before prickly pepper spice ignites the palate. A subtle jolt of sweetness from the base grape distillate keeps the heat in check but the flames carry well onto the finish. It isn't all about spiciness, though. There's complexity too. This vodka is definitely enjoyed best when matched with similarly bold ingredients in cocktails. Start with a Bloody Mary.
