What Does Iceland Have that You Don't? Besides lots of ice, Reyka Vodka!!

Filed in archive Beverages on July 12, 2007

Reyka Vodka is a new super premium, super clear and clean tasting vodka direct from Iceland. It's most unique aspect is that it's "vodka" flavored Vodka.. No extra flavors- just plain, clean taste that works with any other mixer.

Reyka Vodka is:

A "green" vodka, distilled using sustainable and clean energy from geothermal heat.

The first vodka distilled and bottled in Iceland (land of puffins, volcanoes and a female president)

Made from glacial water (sort of like how Jesus turned water into wine, not that Reyka is like Jesus or anything)
