Beluga Vodka coming to US

-
Russian vodkas are continuing to make the jump out of Russia and in to the rest of the world. The biggest success story right now is Imperia Vodka but Beluga Vodka wants to give them a run for their money.

Beluga vodka is a malt vodka made with hyaline artesian water from Siberian springs, and malt spirit made from coached malt enzymes. The process takes about a month for each bottle as it includes some time for the vodka to settle, a 6-day "curing" process, and some time for maturation. This version should sell for around US$35.

There is a "Gold" version that takes three months to make and only 900 bottles a day come off the line, each one of them uniquely numbered. There's no listing of price on this one as of yet.

Both bottles are made from a pure crystal glass and have a 3-D logo on it that is done manually.

Look for it in the next few weeks.

I was staring at the Beluga Vodka section of the Duty Free store at the Moscow airport... their top range is $100, almost double to the next competitor. I wonder if it really is that good. I can't find any reviews of it on the net!

I'm a vodka lover and I've never been impressed with Grey Goose and the like, but I spent 2 weeks this summer in Moscow for work and I FELL IN LOVE with Beluga vodka.... It is SO incredibly smooth and I don't know if it's the way they distill it or what it is, but I never got a bad hangover from it and we went thru a few bottles over one group dinner... If you can find it in the USA, I say buy it and if you know someone who goes to Russia or eastern Europe I would bribe them to bring you a bottle back or have it shipped...

New Absinthe's on the market

Only 8 months after real absinthe has become legalized in the U.S., the importers and overseas producers have really started taking advantage of the buzz and mystique that absinthe holds and launching like crazy here. With more absinthe launches than vodka lately, it may not be long until the brands are just as gimmicky. Three new absinthe's have launched this week in hopes of garnering early market share in a soon-to-be-crowded market. La Fee Absinthe Parisienne is made in Paris and has been around for a while as it's been sold in 20 countries for the last 10 years or so. The product is made by traditional standards and the owner of the recipe still approves each batch of La Fee. For a while, Lucid Absinthe was the only one you could get in the US as it wasn't made from the traditional Grand Wormwood (until March of 2007) so it could get away with going around the law. The producers guessed that the stuff that was considered a fake (but still very flavorful) wasn'

Some thanks and virtual bartender

As of last week we averaged over 1,000 users per day. That's pretty damned cool. I'm surprised to see it myself considering how poor we rank on Technorati, but Performancing.com doesn't lie! In case you live under a rock, the Virtual Bartender are girls that do as you command, just like any good bartender does. They each have a huge list of commands and the most recent version has two girls. The shot pictured is them doing Star Wars. But they make out, shake ass, and many other things (no nudity, but plenty of cheesecake). They seem to do a lot of stuff except being able to make a martini. Brilliant.
