"The tart, bitter black currant bouquet is stunning right from the beginning whiffs; time serves to deepen the black currant concentration to cassis-like. Crisp, tart flavor is razor sharp and clean; at midpalate, there’s an oily quality to the texture that underscores the racy, zesty, black currant flavor. Ends up ripe, fruity. Kurant is the unequivocal prototype for all berry-flavored vodkas." 96-100 pts.

"Subtle vanilla baby oil aromas follow through to a soft, silky oily, and dry light-to medium body with cream and mineral accents and a rounded oily fade. Very subtle pure vanilla flavor with a great texture."

"Pure stemmy herbal crushed raspberry, cream, and mineral aromas follow through to very smooth and silky, dryish medium body with nice mineral, white chocolate, and peppery spice accents. A fine, pure raspberry treat."
