Unveil the exquisite clarity and unique flavour profile of Stumbras Vodka Quince, a premium spirit that stands as a testament to Lithuanian distillation artistry and innovative infusion. This 700ml bottle, presented at a sophisticated 40% alcohol by volume, promises a truly distinctive drinking experience for connoisseurs across New Zealand.
Stumbras, one of Lithuania's oldest and most revered distilleries, boasts a heritage of over a century, renowned for its commitment to traditional craftsmanship and the use of natural ingredients. Their flavoured vodka range, often featuring a signature stalk of grain or fruit within the bottle, is a hallmark of their dedication to authentic flavour and visual appeal. This Quince variant is meticulously infused with natural quince fruit, a golden, aromatic fruit that balances sweetness with a pleasant tartness, offering a complex flavour distinct from more common fruit infusions.
On the nose, Stumbras Vodka Quince offers an inviting and subtly sweet aroma of ripe quince, with hints of pear and apple, and a delicate floral undertone. The palate is defined by its remarkable smoothness and a clean, crisp taste that glides effortlessly. It delivers a harmonious interplay of the quince's natural sweetness and a refreshing, gentle tartness, perfectly balanced by the vodka's inherent purity. The finish is remarkably clean, warming, and long-lasting, leaving a sophisticated impression of its unique fruit character without any artificiality.
Stumbras Vodka Quince is exceptionally versatile. It is ideally enjoyed neat, chilled, as a sophisticated digestif after a meal, particularly during New Zealand's cooler winter evenings when a warming and flavourful spirit is welcomed. It also serves as an intriguing base for crafting unique cocktails, lending a distinctive fruit character to your creations, or simply mixed with soda water and a slice of apple or pear for a refreshing, simple serve. Its natural fruit infusion makes it a superb alternative for those seeking a characterful, flavoured vodka.
