Kola kubes vodka1/12/2023 ![]() I always, ALWAYS have a bottle of Chambord in the cupboard, but at Christmas I get through it at an alarming rate. Or, if you’re looking for something a little cheaper, I love these little penny sweet jars. Lots of A Quarter Of’s products can be personalised too for an extra special treat. I really love these decade sweet hampers filled with retro sweets, whether it’s liquorice wood from the 50s, coconut mushrooms from the 60s, foam shrimps from the 70s or kola kubes from the 80s. I’ve been buying sweet treats from A Quarter Of for YEARS now, because I love the fact I can get pretty much anything I want from one place. I think this might actually be my new favourite vodka… #koskenkorva #koskenkorvavodka #vodka #drinks #decemberĪ post shared by Kayleigh Tanner on at 7:44am PSTĪ selection box with a twist Image from A Quarter OfĪs much as I love a Cadbury’s selection box, it’s always good to branch out and try new things. It tastes like a very very light bourbon (no burning at the back of the throat here!) with woody, smoky flavours, and it's absolutely perfect for winter. It's the Koskenkorva Sauna Barrel vodka and it is SO GOOD. It makes me imagine I’m huddled in a cabin in a Finnish forest, sitting next to a crackling fire while the snow silently sinks to the ground outside. You could drink it with coke, but I reckon I’ll be mixing mine with ginger ale and a dash of pomegranate juice. It’s a really cool twist on standard vodka, and I can see myself getting through this VERY quickly this Christmas. Because it’s aged in a barrel, this vodka has a light bourbon taste, with notes of oak and tar (apparently – I can’t say I know what tar tastes like). I actually spotted this Koskenkorva Sauna Barrel vodka on Twitter a few weeks ago, and the delightful people at Koskenkorva sent me a bottle to share with you guys! Koskenkorva is far and away my favourite vodka brand (I really stocked up on their Nordic Berries flavour at Helsinki airport a few years ago – hard to find now, but I did track it down at Scandi Kitchen), and this is SUCH a cool idea. So, with that in mind, here are my picks to help you eat, drink and be merry, with plenty of hygge stirred in for good measure! Koskenkorva Sauna Barrel vodka For me, food and drink is what brings everyone together at Christmas, whether it’s Christmas dinner, snaffling chocs from the tin in the 4pm slump or laughing like giddy geese on a pre-Christmas pub visit. ![]() The age of 25 a contravention of the group's code.Oh, the best part of the festive season is the food and drink isn’t it? If we’re completely honest? Guys? Anyone with me here? Of COURSE you are – I’d bathe in mulled wine if I could, and I would happily eat yule log for breakfast every day.
