Vodka "Eristoff" is a strong alcoholica drink that most recently was completely unfamiliar to the Russian buyer. Appearing on the shelves of domestic stores, he immediately attracted increased attention. What caused this interest and why an unknown product caused such a stir around itself? This is worth talking in more detail.
A bit of history
When in 1917 the Georgian Prince AlexanderKonstantinovich Aristov emigrated from his native country, embraced by the revolution, to France, he did not even suspect that after some time his name would become known to the whole world. Ancestor of the Grand Duke owned a recipe for vodka, which was developed in St. Petersburg in 1806. Later, in 1956, the son of Alexander Konstantinovich Nikolay gave this information to the French winemakers. So, at the end of the last century, a new Eristoff vodka appeared in Europe.
Thanks to the efforts of the best specialists, this product, along with its originally Russian roots, has acquired true French quality. For its production uses only the best food raw materials:
- the purest water from an artesian well;
- selective grain, which in the process of triple distillation turns into an excellent rectified ethyl alcohol of luxury class.
Very soon, vodka "Eristoff" was recognizedsuper premium class drink. It began to be exported to many countries in Asia, Europe, and South and North America. And only recently, the drink returned to Russia, only in a different way.
Product Description
In the production shops vodka "Eristoff"bottled in 0.5, 0.7 and 1.0 liter glass bottles. They are made by special order and have a pronounced individuality. At the top of each bottle on the front side there is a relief image of the princely crown. And below there is a small thickening, on which in the same style the inscription “Original recipe from 1806” is made in a circle. In addition, the unusual container is decorated with a stylish label with text made in white and silver. Its color, depending on the specific type of product, may be blue, red, black or mixed (blue with green). In addition, the tanks are equipped with a logo representing the image of a wolf's head, which howls at the moon. According to the manufacturer's legend, this figure is associated with the emblem of the direct creator of the drink. But heraldry experts disagree with this statement. After all, only the lion appears on the family arms of the Eristes. So the wolf profile was most likely taken from the insignia of other Georgian princes. But this inaccuracy in no way affects the quality of the product itself.
Company-manufacturer
Prince Nikolai initially gave the secret to the drink.to your friend Count Rossi. Martini & Rossi at that time was mainly engaged in the production of sparkling wines and vermouths. The company was constantly undergoing reorganization, which led to its change of name and scope of activity. Finally, in 1993, she merged with the Bacardi Group.
