Description

Black vodka is a variety of vodka distinguished by its characteristic dark color, a result of infusion with special ingredients such as activated charcoal, spices, or herbs, which also contribute a deeper and more complex flavor compared to traditional vodka. This liquor, though transparent, is darkened and is used in mixology and in some culinary recipes to add a distinctive and sophisticated touch.

The origin of vodka dates back mainly to Eastern Europe, particularly Russia and Poland, where it has been produced since the 14th century. Black vodka is a more recent variant, created to diversify the flavor and presentation options within this classic spirit. Currently, many international and craft brands produce their own version of black vodka.

Regarding its properties, black vodka maintains the high alcohol content typical of vodka (generally between 35% and 40%), but its flavor profile is more complex, with smoky, spicy, or even sweet notes, depending on the ingredients used in its production. In the culinary world, it is used both in dark and elegant cocktails and in preparations that seek a touch of special alcoholic character without the neutral taste of traditional vodka.

In the Spanish-speaking world, especially in Latin America, the term black vodka is quite recognized. However, it may also be referred to as dark vodka or infused vodka, which generically describe this type of vodka with added color and flavor.
