About Finlandia Vodka

Finlandia Vodka's unparalleled quality can be attributed to only the finest ingredients: glacial spring water, and the finest Suomi barley, which offers the highest quality starch and the lowest possible content of natural oils, delivering a crisp, clean taste. Finlandia Vodka was one of the first premium vodkas to introduce flavors from nature in 1994, and since then, Finlandia has introduced several fresh-tasting flavors to the portfolio which currently includes Grapefruit and Raspberry.
