The White Russian was first mixed up back in 1949 when Gustave Tops, a Belgian bartender, dreamt up two luxurious cocktails, the Black and the White Russian. Stolichnaya Elite Vodka is a super-premium edition of one of the world's most famous names in luxury vodka. As the vodka lingers in the mouth its character unfolds with classic wheated notes of sweet aniseed and pepper, into a very long, soft spicy finish. During the freezing, the vodka becomes glycerine-like, and the solubility of different impurities reduces. A product of tireless precision from grain to bottle, elit elevates centuries of vodka tradition to the fine art of ultra-luxury vodka.

There can't be many of you out there who haven't heard of the brand Stolichnaya and most of us are aware that it's Russian. Finally, and to ensure perfection, the spirit goes through the unique Signature Freeze-filtration process at -18 degrees c, passed at an ultra-slow velocity through Ion-charged filters and then allowed to rest. This is then further purified through fine quartz and charcoal to add depths of smoothness before its final stage. All Stolichnaya vodkas are made using Alpha Spirit, the highest grade of spirit recognised by the Russian authorities.

the high-tech Latvijas Balzams facility in riga then filters the spirit through super-fine quartz sand to remove any further impurities and then through birch wood charcoal leaving a filtered, untainted spirit. The liquids density increases causing all the impurities to freeze against the walls of the filtration tanks. Elit is Stolichnaya’s super premium vodka, crafted meticulously with the finest ingredients available to offer. The long connection between the Royal Navy and rum can be traced back to 1655 and Vice-Admiral William Penn's expedition to the West Indies.

Why not keep on-trend and try Elit in a White Russian, blending vodka with coffee liqueur and full-fat milk. The elit vodka is widely regarded as the world’s highest quality vodka, from grain to glass, production is controlled with unerring precision, resulting in a vodka of exceptional purity. Stoli Elit Vodka is set apart from all other vodkas, not only through the use of Alpha Spirit exclusively, but also our unique freeze-out filtration process – the final stage in its crafting. However, Elit is set apart from other Stolichnaya vodkas due to the freeze filtration process the spirit undergoes.
