Old Monkey Vodka is made from a five-tier distillation of grain alcohol. The most essential characteristic of this vodka is that the production is based on the tenets of the foreman distiller Dmitri Mendelejew, who is the father of Russian vodka. He defined that vodka needs to have a an alcohol concentration of 38% as well as that is has to be odourless, colourless and crude. Old Monkey Vodka is a premium vodka because of another important criterion which is the double carbon filtration during destillation that leads to its typical tender and well-rounded character.
