Reyka Reyka Small Batch Vodka NV 750ml

Overall, this is a clean and neutral vodka that’s smooth and nicely balanced. It’s muscular enough for chilled martinis, but is laced with subtle, delicate notes of candied lemon peel and coriander. Distilled from grain and “filtered through ancient arctic lava rocks.”

Minuscule particles of tendril-like sediment seen, along with clouds of what appears to be very small effervescence. Gently sweet and kernel-like in the first engaging sniffs; added minutes in the glass arouse more aromas, including dry breakfast cereal and dry roasted peanuts. Entry is round, supple, and dry, tasting of unsalted Wheat Thins and Wheaties cereal; midpalate is toasty, dry and a touch charcoal-like. Finishes short and intriguingly biscuity, with a parting shot of vanilla bean.
