Absolut Mandrin Vodka (40%)

A citrus-flavoured vodka produced by Absolut in Åhus, Sweden, using a base of winter wheat and pure water from deep wells. It is flavoured with natural mandarin essence and bottled at 40% ABV. The character is bright and juicy mandarin citrus, balanced and clean, with no added sugar. It is suited to cocktails needing citrus character, chilled sipping and refreshing mixed drinks. The nose shows fresh mandarin peel, citrus zest, orange blossom and tangy citrus oils. The palate is juicy mandarin orange up front, slightly sweet citrus without being cloying, with a touch of orange zest or tanginess. The finish is clean and crisp, with a lingering citrus echo and minimal alcohol harshness.
