This handsomely bottled vodka represents the intersection of tradition and technology, taking the spring water from Tatra Mountain in Slovakia to be distilled seven times, creating a pure, clean distinctive taste. The back of each bottle is inscribed with lines of Slovakian poetry. The Double Cross symbol pays tribute to 12th century Byzantine monks who brought the symbol to the region. Wine Enthusiast gives this spirit a whopping 95 points. Cocktail recipes are available at http://doublecrossvodka.com/cocktails/. By itself, it offers a distinctive and delicious experience, straight up or on the rocks with a twist.
