Vodka

Pravda is a handmade premium vodka from southern Poland, where it is distilled using late harvest 'sweet' rye and very pure springwater from the nearby Carpathian mountains. Perhaps uniquely, after a five-stage column distillation, Pravda is then redistilled in a copper still to impart a smoother quality to the spirit.

An interesting oak aged vodka from Adnams - they take some of their Longshore barley vodka and then mature it in new central European oak casks.

Chopin Rye Vodka has been quite popular over in the US, earning the nickname "Chopin Red" due to the distinct red cap.

Developed by Master Blender Börje Karlsson, the man who came up with the recipe for Absolut, Karlsson's Gold is made from Swedish new potatoes and instead of being distilled ad infinitum, has been very carefully distilled just once to preserve the flavour and character of the ingredients. This is not just some style-bar gimmick, but a real vodka with real flavour - Bravo.

A premium Fairtrade vodka from French pioneers Fair - pioneers because they use Bolivian quinoa as the base grain for their vodka, a grain better known as a superfood and vegetarian protein replacement. The quinoa travels over to Cognac, where Fair's team brew and distill the vodka, before sending it out around the world.

A terrific rye vodka, distilled just twice and bottled without charcoal filtration to retain its full-flavoured nuttiness. Potocki is one of the best Polish vodkas on the market.

A very interesting addition to the range from American vodka brand Square One - this botanical vodka made with 100% organic rye has been flavoured with a variety of interesting ingredients including pear, camomile, rosemary and lavender.

A worthy Polish vodka, part of whose profits go towards the preservation of these cute spotty white tigery things.

A gift set combining Belvedere's elegant vodka and Fever Tree's Mediterranean tonic water, specially formulated to make an excellent vodka and tonic.

The 2011 edition of Belvedere's regular quadruple-distilled rye vodka produced in conjunction with (RED), meaning that a proportion of the profit made on each sale will go to AIDS charities around the world. Great vodka and a great cause.

A zingy Polish vodka from Belvedere, distilled with tomatoes and spices to make the perfect Bloody Mary base. They recommend just adding tomato juice and a squeeze of lemon.

A brand new limited edition rhubarb (yes, rhubarb!) vodka from Hereford’s finest craft distillers, Chase. Flavoured with one of England's most beloved pie-fillers, we expect this to be a very big hit.

Made with the essence of fresh, ripe Spanish lemons and limes and blended with four-times distilled Belvedere vodka, this is pretty classy stuff

An exciting variant from Belvedere, made not with black raspberries (as the name might suggest) but blackcurrants and raspberries, with a hint of rose petal. Serve long with soda, lime and plenty of ice for a delicious summer cooler.

Made with organic apples from their orchard in herefordshire, Naked Chase is the latest vodka from the splendid Chase distillery, and is to be the base for their forthcoming gin.

A very limited edition run - just 1000 bottles - of this highly unusual vodka from Chase distillery, which has been smoked with English oak for an intriguingly delicious flavour almost reminiscent of a fine reposado tequila or mezcal. This is superb, and was named as Best Potato Vodka in a recent taste-test by Harper's Wine & Spirit magazine.

A pink grapefruit-flavoured variant of Polish rye vodka Belvedere, first introduced in 2010. This should be scrummy.

A new Absolut flavoured with - wait for it - mango and pepper! Sounds strangely wonderful. All profits to a good cause - Gulf Coast charities in the stricken city of New Orleans.

A superb vodka, whose original limited edition release completely sold out, from the splendid Chase distillery. This is flavoured with Seville Orange Marmalade and is brilliant in mixed drinks - try with grapefruit juice and a spot of grenadine.

From Cognac in France, this breakthrough wheat-based small-batch ultra-premium vodka has achieved global success and won a Platinum medal at the World Spirits Championship. Grey Goose was bought by Bacardi for over $2 billion in 2002.
