Thread: Medea Vodka

Has anyone had this before?

Medea Vodka (750ml)





This will make the perfect finishing piece for a friends wedding gift, but not if it tastes like garbage.

Tasting review from : In With Bacchus: Medea Vodka - Monday, Feb. 8th

the more important question you may be asking is 'how's the vodka?'. Well...

The nose shows off the grain well. It has faint hints of wheat, I think. Maybe barley. EDIT: Checked, it's wheat. It has the traditional ethanol-y smell along with a faint crisp sweetness and what I can only describe as an oily-ness.

The taste is pretty good. Sweet and smooth, with no harshness to it at all. A lot of vodka is the equivalent of fire in a bottle but this sips smooth and clean. Mouth-feel is slightly thicker and richer that normal vodkas. It's definitely not filtered and probably minimally distilled. With a richness like this, maybe twice. EDIT: just checked, it's single distilled.

This is a nice vodka. When I do drink vodka I prefer it unfiltered and minimally distilled as it really brings out an oily richness and some great flavor in the vodka. This stuff ain't bad. It's one of the few that I could see sipping on the rocks. I will say that I've had more flavorful vodkas but overall it's a significantly more viable option over any of the big-name spirits. I saw it in a local store for $40 and I do think that is quite steep even with the novelty of an LED label. If it was $30ish I'd be more inclined to consider it but this may not be Medea's fault.

That sounds pretty promising, my Google search skills must be lacking today I couldn't find any online review.

Requested my local liquor store pick up a case or two of this. Going to pick up two bottles, one for the gift and other just because it's pretty cool!

Get me a bottle candor.

Leo's Museum waiting this gift!
