Blavod Black Vodka, a dark spirit for Halloween

If you could say there is one trouble with vodka is that it's so, well, transparent, in both color and flavor.

The striking Blavod Black Vodka puts an end to that problem. Black catechu -- extracted from Uncaria Gambier trees in Asia -- is used to dye Blavod its deep and sophisticated hue, and it imparts an slight astringent herbal flavor to Blavod. The overall taste is sweet, with a late flare of alcohol. Plus It looks gorgeous floated on top of orange or cranberry juice.

It seems gimmicky, but Blavod is truly is a well-crafted spirit that's excellent for Halloween, or just when you want to serve your guests something noticeably different.
