Review: Voli Vodka
Made in Cognac, France, this vodka is crafted from French wheat, 5x distilled, blended with local water, and endorsed by Pitbull.
Voli (aka Voli Black) has a hyper-modern profile from start to finish. On the nose, it offers substantial sweetness, with caramel notes and a bit of citrus. The body is as sweet as you would expect, offering overtones of marshmallow, sweetened coconut, and vanilla. There’s none of the citrus hinted at from the nose on the palate, but the finish wraps things up with some baking spice and more brown sugar.
Did I mention the sweetness? Just checking.
80 proof.
B- / $20
Do you think Voli gets a small dose of boisé?
Boise traditionally includes oak chips so that additive as we use it wouldn’t be used. However it has become commonplace to add some kind of sugar additive to vodka to sweeten it up, which seems likely to me here.
