Created through an obsession with accuracy and a unique freeze filtration Elit Vodka is the ultimate expression of vodka luxury. Stoli vodkas are crafted using Alpha Spirit the highest grade of spirit recognized by the Russian authorities. 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. Inspired by the old Russian tradition of leaving casks outside in freezing winter conditions we chill the liquid to exactly -18°C; at this temperature the liquid density increases and it moves through ion-charged carbon filters very slowly. This ensures the smallest impurities are captured and removed leaving an exquisitely pure liquid. After rigor comes rest. Our liquid is given time and space to return to ambient temperature. Unhurried it acquires the hallmarks of molecular perfection: flawless clarity and density.
