The U.S. debut of Chopin Rye marks a new milestone for the Chopin brand, which pioneered the luxury vodka category. Long available in Poland, Chopin Rye will be available at select U.S. retailers in late March 2011, and has earned the nickname “Chopin Red” for its distinctive red label.
Tasting Profile: Chopin Rye is extraordinarily silky with a medium body, a rich, balanced finish and a lively hint of spice. Clear with subtle aromas of rye dough follow-through, it is an elegant, artisanal vodka for sipping and superior cocktails.
How to Enjoy it: Savor Chopin Rye in a CEO – a Chopin martini with extra olives (pimento-stuffed for a touch of red). Or, try it with cranberry juice, a splash of soda and lime.
Relatively neutral on the palate, this vodka has soft vanilla and caraway scents and a subtle but surprising rich dark-chocolate undercurrent. It finishes clean, with a flicker of ginger heat.
