Virtuous Vodka Bitter Lemon — Organic Sicilian Citrus
Flavoured 40% ABV ABV Virtuous VodkaPleasant enough
I can see why people rate this but it's not quite my favourite. The Bright Sicilian lemon zest is clean — really approachable — but the palate is a touch too neutral for my preferences. The organic rye sweetness is smooth and easy, which makes it good for vodka newcomers. I was expecting a bit more character given the editorial score.
Virtuous Vodka Bitter Lemon — Organic Sicilian Citrus is outstanding
The nose on this is lovely — I immediately got bitter pith and Bright Sicilian lemon zest. On the palate, the a refreshingly tart edge is beautifully done, and the finish is clean and satisfying. I agree with the editorial review — this is a seriously impressive vodka. Tried it neat at room temperature first, then chilled from the freezer. Both excellent, but neat at room temp shows off the character better.
Stunning quality
What a beautifully crafted spirit. The nose gives you a clean rye grain backdrop and lovely character, and on the palate it's all about a refreshingly tart edge. The mouthfeel is particularly impressive — silky, full, and rewarding. The finish rounds everything off with a clean warmth. Anyone who says all vodka tastes the same hasn't tried this. The review here nails it.
