Stoli Vodka (formerly Stolichnaya) is a wheat and rye vodka trademarked in the Soviet Union in 1938 and first bottled in Leningrad in 1941. It’s distilled and bottled at the Latvijas Balzams distillery in Riga, Latvia, combining traditional production methods with a base of wheat and rye grain. Stoli was the first vodka producer to release flavoured expressions globally, launching Honey & Herb and Pepper editions back in 1962.
CHARACTER
Wheat: a wheated sweetness that builds through the mid-palate
Fresh Herbs: subtle, balanced herbaceous notes on the nose and finish
Black Pepper: a prickly, peppery character from the rye in its base
