"Vibrant crushed blueberry and spice aromas. A silky,soft entry leads to a dryish medium body of blueberries, mineral oil, and whipped cream flavors. Finishes with a long, cream blueberry fade. Very pure and appealing flavor."

"Mild aromas of sugared orange peels. A very smooth and silky entry leads to a delicate, dryish light-to-medium body of sweet orange zest and cream flavors with a tingly mineral and pepper fade. Nice purity and poise."

Created in legendary St. Petersburg from an 1894 vodka recipe, Imperia is made exclusively from hand-selected winter wheat grown on the fields of the Russian Steppes and naturally pure, soft water from the northern glaciers. 8x distillation and sophisticate crystal quartz filtration remove impurities for an ultra pure, crystal clear and velvety smooth vodka like no other.

"First inhalation stamps the impression of ripe, fresh cranberry; with further time in the glass, the cranberry settles down. Palate entry is subtle as the ripe cranberry essence emerges at the end of the first taste wave; by midpalate, the flavor becomes graceful as the cranberry taste turns ripe, sweet and juicy, but neither cloying nor domineering. Aftertaste is long, ripe and properly acidic." 90-95 pts.

Ultra premium Russian Vodka in a unique egg produced by Karl Faberge containing a gilded glass decanter. Egg colors vary.

"Scents of lightly toasted grain. The palate entry is stunningly silky and grainy sweet; at midpalate the taste profile turns sap-like and creamy with undercurrents of burning matches or seared beefsteak. Finishes creamy and rich." 90-95 pts.
