The spirit is first blended with artesian well water, then filtered through active birch charcoal and quartz sand to create a liquid with unsurpassed smoothness. Stoli is distilled three times to produce a unique balance between character and smooth taste. All of Stoli flavored vodka starts with the exceptional quality and original character of Stoli Premium Vodka as its base.
