When it comes to Vodka, not everyone can set the standard. Russian Standard can. No 1 premium Vodka, recognized for its superbly smooth spirit and pure taste – a result of the 1894 formula that Dmitri Mendeleev created for the Czars of the Russian Empire, and which by royal decree set the ultimate Vodka quality standard.
Russian Standard Original has become the quintessence of Vodka in its own motherland. Its recipe is based on the combination of traditional winter wheat, coming from the Russian Black Steppes' fertile soil, and the remarkable clarity of the pure, soft, glacial water from Lake Ladoga of the frozen north of Russia, one of the largest lakes in Europe and one of the biggest reservoirs of sweet water on Earth. This unique combination, distilled more than 200 times, leads to an exceptionally smooth Vodka that preserves unaltered its authentic Russian origin.
The unrivaled quality of Russian Standard Original is safeguarded inside an impressive bottle, inspired by the steeple of Saint Paul's church in the heart of Moscow. Its design brings to life the remembrance of the Russian Empire, while highlighting the important role of Vodka in Russian tradition.
