Chopin Launches New Premium Rye Vodka

Filed under: Spirits

High-end vodkas may be commonplace today, but they've really only been around since the late 1990s. That's when Grey Goose came to market, when Belvedere first debuted and when Chopin made its premiere.

Now some fourteen years after Chopin potato vodka first appeared, the Polish craft distillery is launching a new product: Chopin Rye. Distinguished by its red label, Chopin Rye Vodka is distilled, as you might have guessed, from rye grains instead of potatoes like its black-labeled sister product.

The new ultra-premium spirit (named after the famous composer) has been on the market in Poland for years, but is only now reaching the United States, where it will launch at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival later this month.

Oh look, another vodka. The latest debut comes from the Grand Traverse Distillery in Traverse City, Michigan. True North Vodka has announced a new cherry-infused vodka. The vodka is a rye-based concoction with glacial waters and uses a triple distillation process. The area is famous for their cherry production. The True North Vodka, which has a bottle that reminds me a bit of Belvedere, was first released in June 2007 both the original and the cherry version sell for $29.99 per bottle and are so far only available in Michigan.
