The new Double Cross Luxury Vodka, which is filtered through diamond dust and is the only Slovakian vodka to be released in the United States, is produced in the 13th century village of Stara Lubovna in the foothills of the breathtaking Tatra Mountain range.

The seven-times-distilled spirit uses only 100 percent organic, estate-grown winter wheat and mountain spring water drawn from aquifers located 200-feet below ground level. Double Cross' diamond dust filtration system is said to provide unprecedented filtration capability because of the "unique shape and sub-micron size of the diamond dust particles."

The result is a clean, crisp vodka with hints of white pepper and lemon zest. The unique rectangular bottle has no seams and features a number of artistic elements including verses of old-world Slovakian poetry silk-screened on the back, a metal top and a metal Double Cross logo, derived from the Slovakian flag and embedded in the front.

If you are dreaming of an eco-friendly holiday, here's an option that takes you to somewhere you probably haven't considered, Poprad, Slovakia. That's the home of Aquacity, a resort that has photocells built in to the glass walls of the complex. The cells generate enough power to operate their latest pool center, Relax, a solar-powered, geothermal swimming-pool complex . The pool center which opened at the end of June, includes an adult pool center which includes a circular wave pool and four satellite pools equipped with 380 massage jets that is adjacent to a children's water play area. Light effects change the water color and laser light shows create dramatic effects on to a wall of water.

A water park doesn't sound like an eco-frinedly place but the park uses the resources of wind, water and sun, instead of fossil fuels, saving up to 30,000 kg of carbon emissions per day, compared with a similar sized Alpine resort. The resort generates 80% of their electrical requirement and gets their water from geothermal water, drilled from a vast subterranean lake.

The resort has three- and four-star resort hotels, restaurants, bars and a cryotherapy center. In the cryotherapy treatment, you spend time in two chambers, one which is cooled to a temperature of -60°C and the main Cryo-Chamber which is cooled to -120°C. After a few minutes in the chambers you go through a 20 minute low impact, cardio-vascular workout to increase bloodflow. Sounds like one unique vacation.
