Reyka Small Batch

Vodka "Reyka" is not just made in Iceland; it is literally woven from the breathtaking majestic landscapes of this yet-to-be-fully-discovered country. The word "reyka" translates from Old Icelandic as "steam rising from the earth's depths," which is a common phenomenon in an area with active volcanoes. Water is the most important component in the production of "Reyka" vodka. Arctic spring water, passing through a 4000-year-old layer of solidified volcanic lava, is among the purest in the world. Elite varieties of barley and wheat, mixed with this water, are distilled in a steam still called Carter-Head Still, of which there are only six in the world. Its design, originally developed for making gin, includes a chamber filled with botanical components, through which the spirit is infused with their aroma. In the case of "Reyka" vodka, this chamber is filled with pieces of lava, which, acting like a sponge, filters the distillate and softens it. Vodka "Reyka" confirms its unique taste, having been awarded the title of "Best in the World" in 2011 by the "International Wine & Spirits Competition" and the most environmentally friendly. For five consecutive years, it has achieved prize-winning positions at this competition: silver in 2008, 2009, 2012, and gold in 2010, 2011.
