The Stolichnaya Gold serves as an upgrade to their vodka with redesigned label and tweaks in the production process that gave drinkers a more elevated drinking experience than the standard expression. Starting with the same base ingredients of wheat, rye, and artesian water, the vodka is fermented and distilled before being blended in water filtered through shungite, one of the rarest and most remarkable minerals on earth and finally undergoing multiple filtrations using coils of gold thread to create a sublimely rich vodka expression that is premium in every way.
