Three key elements distinguish Stolichnaya from its imitators. First,
it is distilled from superior winter wheat rather than lesser grains
like corn. Second, it is made with only the purest, softest glacial
water rather than processed water. Third, it is put through an
elaborate, time-consuming double-distillation process that requires
quartz and activated charcoal filtration.The result is a vodka of
spectacular smoothness and clarity that outshines all others when
served straight in the Russian tradition. It also mixes beautifully
with juices, tonics and sodas.
