Jordan Major (JM):Au was founded in 2016, when Charlie Morgan and Jackson Quinn thought of the idea after seeing everyone gifted the same boring spirits at Christmas time. Others languages include the German Branntwein, Danish brændevin, Dutch: brandewijn, Swedish: brännvin, and Norwegian: brennevin (although the latter terms refer to any strong alcoholic beverage). However, watch out for potential cross-contamination and hidden gluten in vodkas that may add flavorings or other ingredients after distillation. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Association (SAMHSA) has a national helpline, 1-800-662-HELP (4357), which is a confidential, free, 24-hour-a-day, 365-day-a-year, information service, in English and Spanish. At the same time, the word vodka was already in use, but it described herbal tinctures (similar to Nalewka), containing up to 75% ABV, and made for medicinal purposes.

It’s a similar process to what’s done when producing gin (as vodka and gin production start off the same way) and results in any number of different varieties. Absolut is one of the cleanest vodkas available, with a crisp, pure taste that’s somehow also full-bodied and complex. Vodka may be distilled from any starch- or sugar-rich plant matter; most vodka today is produced from grains such as sorghum, corn, rye or wheat. This beverage has been produced in Sweden since the late 15th century, although the total production was still small in the 17th century. Belvedere, originating from Poland, is produced at the Polmos Zyrardow distillery (known as the birthplace of all vodka) using Dankowskie Gold Rye.

It’s kind of the vodka equivalent of Pokemon: you’ll want to catch them all when you’ve sampled a flavor or two.

The brand produces its vodka in western Siberia, Russia, using artesian water for the ultimate authentic taste.Any vodka not made from either grain or potatoes would have to display the products used in its production. Some common favorites are Cosmopolitan, Vodka Martini, Bloody Mary, Gimlet, The Moscow Mule, and White Russian. People in the area of vodka's probable origin have names for vodka with roots meaning "to burn": Polish: gorzała; Ukrainian: горілка, romanized: horílka; Belarusian: гарэлка, romanized: harelka; Lithuanian: degtinė; Samogitian: degtėnė is also in use, colloquially and in proverbs; [14] Latvian: degvīns; Finnish: paloviina.
