Award-winning Ukrainian brand Nemiroff has launched its vodkas in India through a partnership with Amistad Spirits, furthering its ambition of becoming a top-five vodka brand in the world. The brand makes its spirits, which undergo 9-11 stages of filtration, from lux-class grain alcohol, to purest artesian water from its own wells.

The Nemiroff Deluxe vodka is a fabulous classic – crisp and bold, great for sipping, and all manner of mixing. It is a herbal vodka that offers notes of coriander seeds, paprika and lime blossom. The chili-pepper infusion and a peppercorn inside the bottle lend the taste of burning pepper, thyme, clover and cinnamon.

Nemiroff’s Honey Pepper vodka is made from a recipe dating back to the 16th Century. It is infused with estate-harvested honey, chili peppers, and a mixture of more than 27 herbs and spices. The result is richly flavoured, honey-sweet and pepper-spicy vodka.

Nemiroff also blends ultra-pure vodka with cranberry to create a refreshing, slightly sweet new taste. Nemiroff wild cranberry is practically a cocktail in a glass, or it can be combined with a squeeze of fresh lime juice and sparkling water.

The fresh cranberry tang comes with a touch of citrus acidity, and the background honey balances warming spice.

Nemiroff Deluxe and Honey-Pepper come in 750-ml bottles, while the flavoured cranberry variant is packaged in 700-ml glass. Bottled at 40% ABV, the Deluxe retails for ?1,990 and the flavoured ones for ?2,190 in Delhi.
