Portobello Road British Asparagus Vodka | 700ML

Yes, you read that right. After a limited run of Asparagus gin proved a hit, the folks at Portobello Road saw it only natural to bring us British Asparagus Vodka. No other botanicals here to mask the unmistakable flavour of asparagus (that's not something we expected to be writing), just Portobello's British Potato Vodka distilled with the best of the season's asparagus. It's definitely one for the gastronomically adventurous out there, or just really big asparagus fans! We think this will make an interesting twist to a Gibson or a Bloody Mary.

Portobello Road British Asparagus Vodka | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Well no mistaking what this is, right away the unique aroma of Aparagus is apparent, perhaps joined by a slight (hazel) nuttiness, if we can imagine smell as a colour it is distinctly green on the nose. The nose is enticing, beguiling and for many somewhat intriguing, people are really not accustomed to their alcohol smelling of asparagus.

Palate: Again, no mistaking what this is, the flavour of asparagus arrives early and lingers long, there is a surprising amount of sweetness, and due to the British Potato Vodkas ability to carry both flavour and texture the whole seems to coat the inside of the mouth and stimulate every inch of the tastebuds.

Finish: The sweetness eventually gives way to a an earthiness and a nuttiness, the vegetal note also lives long on the palate, no real sensation of alcohol heat is felt in the throat or thee palate. The lasting impression is one of freshness, softness, and creaminess.
