Distilled six times in a POT STILL (not a continuous column stilll; pot stills are much more labor intensive), then filtered for 14 hours in a proprietary mix of hardwood charcoal before bottling. Appearance: Crystal clear, no sediment whatsoever or separation. Appropriately thick but not overly thick body. A lot of the thicker bodied vodkas have been 'doped up' to give a bigger mouth feel, cover a so-so (or worse) distillation and generally mislead; not so with V6 Vodka. On swirling, it leaves a a thin clear coat on the inside of the glass, legs forming. First Impression: Rye, lots of rye, with a touch of sweetness, no off-notes whatsoever, a deft hand made the cuts on this distillation. Taste: The purest distillation I have had in a very long time. Amazingly smooth texture and finish to it. Wonderful full-mouth feel creamy texture. Drinks: This vodka shows off best by itself at room temperature. Not many other vodkas can do that. Almost a pity to mix it with anything else, but if you must, it makes for a rounder, more complex drink than if you used a lesser product.
