An Unrivaled Promise: Russian Standard Vodka
Crafted in St. Petersburg: Dmitri Mendeleev’s Legacy Lives On
In the realm of vodka, Russian Standard is more than a brand; it’s a commitment to redefine the standard for vodka enthusiasts globally. Breaking away from the dichotomy of choosing between pure vodka and one with exceptional taste, Russian Standard Original, crafted exclusively in St. Petersburg, upholds Dmitri Mendeleev’s 1894 principles for vodka creation.
The Essence of Excellence: A Perfect Balance
Derived from winter wheat and glacial water, Russian Standard embodies an extraordinary convergence of state-of-the-art distillation techniques and time-honored traditions. This vodka sets the benchmark for excellence in its homeland, blending science and nature, craft and technology, history and revolution in an intricate dance.
Inspired by Mendeleev: The Pursuit of Equilibrium
Drawing inspiration from the renowned scientist Dmitri Mendeleev, the inventor of the Periodic Table, Russian Standard Vodka identifies the perfect equilibrium between water and alcohol. This philosophy, rooted in natural order, was instrumental in the establishment of the original Russian Empire Standard by Tsar Alexander III in 1894.
Geographical Advantage: St. Petersburg’s Role
Mendeleev’s dedication to science seamlessly aligns with the passion for vodka-making, evident in every bottle of Russian Standard Vodka. Produced in their shared hometown of St. Petersburg, often referred to as the Venice of the North, this geographical coincidence is far from accidental.
Purity from Nature: Glacial Waters of Lake Ladoga
Situated near Lake Ladoga, St. Petersburg benefits from the soft, glacial waters of this vast lake. The water’s purity, with minimal impurities, stems from Ladoga’s granite basin, shaped by glaciers in the last Ice Age.
Finest Ingredients: Russian Winter Wheat
A short distance away lies the fertile black soil of the Russian Steppes, where the finest food-grade winter wheat is cultivated. This carefully selected grain contributes to the unique sensory profile and taste of Russian Standard Vodka.
Naturally Modern: State-of-the-Art Distillation Process
These natural ingredients converge at the state-of-the-art distillery in St. Petersburg, undergoing a proprietary distillation process over 200 times. This meticulous process results in near-celestial purity and smoothness, setting Russian Standard apart.
A Symphony of Flavors: Ultra-Clean, Smooth, and Delicious
The journey culminates in a harmonious blend of unstrained nature and cutting-edge technology, condensed into a single moment of pure pleasure. Russian Standard Vodka embodies the true essence of how vodka should be—a testament to the rich heritage of St. Petersburg and the pursuit of perfection in every sip
