Cîroc Summer Citrus Limited Edition Vodka (75cl, 35%)

Cîroc Summer Citrus is a limited edition vodka built around orange rather than the lemon and lime that citrus vodkas usually default to. It is made with vodka infused with orange and other citrus flavours, over a base distilled five times from fine French grapes. The bottle runs a warm gradient from bright orange at the shoulder through amber into deep red at the base, frosted rather than gloss. Orange is the lead flavour: sweeter, rounder and less sharp than a lemon-forward profile, with other citrus filling in behind. Fresh orange zest and sweet citrus lead on the nose, with a bright lift behind. The palate is rounded and juicy, with sweet orange carrying through and a soft acidic edge, kept fresh by the light grape base. The finish is clean and lightly sweet, with lingering citrus.
