Tom of Finland Organic Vodka 50cl

Product Information

The vodka’s organic and made using organically grown wheat, rye and pure arctic water. It’s interesting they’ve used two grains to produce the vodka, as most use only one. There’s also no added sugar. NOTE: ALL SHIPMENTS CONTAINING ALCOHOL REQUIRE AN ADULT (21 YEARS OR OLDER) SIGNATURE UPON DELIVERY! So who makes this gorgeous vodka?

The guy on the bottle is a handsome guy and it’s a handsome bottle too, solid and square, designed to be masculine, though only containing 50cl. I’ll forgive them that, though, because of the quality of the contents. More on that in a moment. The brand ambassador for the vodka is Niklas Hogner, a Swedish celebrity who was previously a world championship figure skater and competed in Sweden’s Dancing on Ice show on TV. He appears in the new Tom of Finland film in the role of Kake – the idealised gay character that appeared in many of the illustrations. This they’ve achieved. On the nose it is incredibly smooth, with just a hint of spiciness. Tasting it, though, is where the wow factor comes in. It’s deliciously smooth and rounded. It’s robust yet beautifully-rounded, like drinking silk. It seems to coat the mouth completely, with a pleasing oily feel to it, and with still those spicy hints. Swallowing, it’s still amazingly smooth, none of that harsh slightly burning feel you sometimes get. The company describes it as having a mellow finish, and I wouldn’t argue with that.
