In a sense, Latvijas Balzams combines tradition with the modern in the production of its Riga Black Vodka. The preparation of the vodka makes use of advanced technology - but this does not detract from the taste of the vodka, which has been popular and established for decades. The bottler benefits from the fact that he is allowed to use so-called artesian well water for bottling - this is what makes the vodka so pure and original. Tasting notes:The Riga Black Vodka is a very soft and pure vodka. Whether you use it for mixing or drink it neat, it is easy to have for both.
