It was kinda kitschy a few years ago, but still commanding – gotta admit that bottle stood out. But in retrospect slapping the symbol of oppression, slavery of captive nations, and institutionalized murder suggested we hadn’t read a history book, and after looking through wikipedia – whoa Stalin, buddy, talk about Comrade Overboard there – we’re rebranding it as Kronstadt Vodka, in honor of those who rose up against the Bolsheviks. Rest assured it still has the same crisp, clean taste.”
