Eastern European and Russia vodkas in particular are a favorite of mine. And Imperia is one of the best. For sipping or shot vodka it’s pretty much perfect. Perfectly smooth, no after taste, almost no harsh alcohol scent. Slightly more expensive then Russian Standard premium, you can taste a slight difference in the two. However at least where I live it is difficult to find unfortunately.

Typical wheat body with slight medicinal edge. Finish is surprisingly smooth and silky. I don't really care for the taste personally but it goes down so easily that it's a non-issue. Only tried it straight.
Smoothest, most neutral vodka I've ever tasted. Couldn't find any taste whatsoever while it was cold. When warms up to room temperature reminds me of Absolut.
Trash. Just like Putin! GLORY TO UKRAINE!
