Karlsson's Gold 25 | Handcrafted Swedish Vodka

COLOR:
Crystal clear, no sediment whatsoever. On swirling, it leaves a thin clear coat on the inside of the glass with uniform legs. A crystal clear limpid pool in the glass.

NOSE:
A slightly sweet smell to it, slightly alkaline, in a pleasant way, full, round ,earthy smells , like hot cocoa and vanilla, a basso profundo of vodka. No smell of esters or oils – this is clean stuff. Unlike grain vodkas this does not have that rubbing alcohol, high esters smell. Very distinctive and full of promise.

TASTE:
Slight alkali tang/bite, very oily on the tongue, nice body, with a lovelycrisp bite to it. Glides down the throat, not the air strike burn like you get from a lot of other vodkas- it is beguilingly smooth stuff. Karlsson’s has alingering warmth and tingle to the lips with a lovely dry vanilla Finish almost like a kiss. Chilling brings out the sweetness and body even more.
