Belvedere Vodka celebrates the introduction of the Belvedere Spritz Collection – a line of all-natural cocktails that are synonymous with Belvedere’s pure spirit with an exclusive launch and tasting party at SkyBar Kuala Lumpur.
Members of the media and fans of the luxury spirit were invited to be the nation’s firsts in experiencing Belvedere’s new range of 100% natural and low sugar spritzes. To showcase the Belvedere Spritz Collection, Asia Pacific Brand Ambassador for Belvedere Vodka, Marek Vojcarcik, mixed up four delicious Belvedere cocktails – the signature Belvedere Spritz, Sailors Martini, Belvedere Banana & Tarragon Spritz, and Classic Belvedere Sour.
The Belvedere Spritz’s variations highlights and mimics Belvedere’s purity in the artisantry of vodka making. Crafted from just two ingredients (Dankowskie rye and artesian water) – Belvedere remains simple, with no additives or enhancements. This recipe is in accordance with the Polish geographical appellation, protecting a 600-year-old tradition of vodka making with absolutely no sugar added.
The new line of cocktail recipes is in conjunction with the release of Belvedere’s ‘Be Natural’ manifesto – celebrating its natural roots and setting out what natural really means to Belvedere. Transcending standard definitions of ‘natural’, Belvedere’s commitment goes beyond simply acting natural. The manifesto outlines ten tangible principles with a common message: keep it simple, real and clear.
Real ingredients taste better. Distilled from locally sourced raw ingredients from ten select farms, this meticulously cultivated, harvested and fermented rye is at the heart of Belvedere Vodka. Transformed by Polmos Zyrardow and diluted with water from its own artesian wells near Zyrardow, Belvedere truly is a product of its environment. All of Belvedere’s flavoured vodkas use 100% fresh and natural ingredients, which are picked from a bush or a tree, not from a lab.
Furthermore, Belvedere keeps it clear.Naturally transparent, Belvedere chooses a minimalist approach not only in its production, but also when it comes to cocktails. Introducing the Belvedere Spritz Collection – a series of twelve natural and deliciously refreshing long drinks full of fruity flavor, low in sugar and simple to create. Faithful to the popular spritz recipe, the Belvedere Spritz is prepared with a naturally flavoured modifier, topped off with sparkling and tonic water and finally finished with two fresh garnishes.
