Fris Grape Vodka | 1.75L

Detailed Description

Fris Vodka is pronounced like the English “freeze” and is translated from Danish as “frost” or “ice.” Fris vodka uses a special distillation process they call freeze distillation. Freeze distillation was actually invented prior to modern (and by that we mean middle-ages) distillation methods that use heat by taking advantage of the fact that alcohol freezes at lower temperatures than water. (Think of keeping vodka in the freezer, for example.) During winter, wines were left outside and the liquid left over separated from the ice creating a rather harsh and primitive distillate. Fris takes modern column-still vodka and undertakes a special and more sophisticated freeze distillation to help remove oils and other impurities. Fris Grape Flavored vodka is one of the flavored expressions from this line of Swedish vodkas. It appears that it may have been discontinued.
