Cristalnaya

Capturing the sparkle of everyday life, Cristalnaya boasts a uniquely smooth character all of its own.

Using only the finest grains and an all-natural, secret blend of botanicals, it is triple distilled to the same quality standards laid down by Russian Tsar, Alexander III, in 1894.

With its smooth palate and silky finish, the essence of Cristalnaya is a liquid as pure as diamonds.

Why is Cristalnaya different?

The vision was to create a super smooth vodka but with no heavy oily taste that could be caused by adding some additives.

Preference was to use natural ingredients and therefore, through developing Gins, the Master Distiller came across a botanical that although wouldn’t work for Gin, instinctively new it would work with a pure neutral alcohol.

We do not wish to divulge the name of the said botanical for obvious reason but what Ian be told is that this ingredient grows wild, typically in cold places!

Dmitri Mendeleev, Russian chemist, was commissioned
to formulate these new standards for the production
of the Russian vodka:

  • 38% Alcohol
  • 100% Russian grain
  • Charcoal filtration

In 1894, tsar Alexander III of Russia introduced
regulations on the production of Vodka to ensure a
certain standard of quality
