Jewels Lines Precious Vodka

Precious Vodka is produced by LVK-Vinprom in Bulgaria from carefully selected winter wheat and pure artesian water. The spirit goes through a multi-stage distillation the maker brands as Diamond Distillation, the aim being to purify the alcohol thoroughly and arrive at a clear, even style, with a further filtration step the house keeps deliberately quiet about. Wheat gives the soft, rounded base, and at 40% by volume the result is clean and balanced. The presentation runs with the theme: a faceted, diamond-shaped bottle and a cap set with a natural gemstone, anything from sapphire to peridot.

The nose is clean and soft with subtle cereal. The palate is velvety and balanced, carrying a fine sweetness and a clear structure, with a smooth, gently warming finish. Because its appeal is purity and a touch of theatre, serve it neat and ice-cold from the freezer in a small chilled glass, letting the clean wheat body and faint sweetness speak for themselves before the gemstone cap does the rest of the talking.
