The word vodka is derived from the word for water, which in Russian is voda and in Polish is woda. The raw material for vodka must contain starch and can range from cereal grains such as rye, sweet fruits, tubers and roots such as potatoes or molasses. Fermented alcoholic wash from these raw materials is distilled in old (pot) or new (patent) still distillation process to produce a colourless spirit that is high in alcohol content and low in character.
Filtration is an important stage in vodka production as this removes all unwanted flavours that could be present in the spirit even after multiple distillations. The challenge for most vodka producers is to be able to eliminate any hint of distinctiveness of its base ingredients used and thus the many techniques involved in its production process. Filtration involves use of charcoal derived from different wood varieties depending on the production house, which also enhances the character of vodka.
Water and the minerals present in it define the character of the vodka. Old style vodkas were defined by the harsh bite of alcohol in the mouth and aftertaste. Today, most vodka distillers emphasise on the mineral content of water, its source, raw material used and finally the number of times the spirit is distilled and filtered.
Vodka is best enjoyed when consumed neat (chilled), with lots of ice and a twist or with mixers of any type. Fine vodkas are a popular base for Martinis in many bars.
Always ~ Consume a fine vodka neat or on the rocks.
Never ~ Underestimate vodka. A silent spirit, it goes down very quickly and can give you the worst hangovers.
