Purity Vodka- An Extreme Enjoyment
You can find Purity Vodka’s distillery at Ellinge castle , where just outside Eslöv in Skåne. Purity Vodka is not well know in Sweden, but it may be one of the worlds best premium vodkas. The problem is, in my opinion, is the price you pay for a better package. Purity has a well designed bottle, which was designed by Martin Lannering at Happy Forsman & Bodenfors.
In other words, Purity Vodka is unsurpassed as the result of labor intensive and demanding after being carried out in small batches. Its final spirit reaches 96% vol.(192 Proof), which ia so pure that filtration is unnecessary. In addition, all the natural flavors and character in the vodka can be remained. Thus, purity Vodka is the crown jewel of ultra premium vodka.
