State Store: Bizarre Vodka Round Up
Note: Welcome to State Store, a column where we hit the Wine & Spirits shops of Philly and see what's new and noteworthy or just plain weird.
Due to the whims of PLCB Pennsylvania state liquors stores are home to some pretty bizarre booze. Today we're going to take a little stroll through the unsettling world of vodka at Wine & Spirits Store located on 2nd between Market and Chestnut.
The wall of vodka in this Olde City location is truly fascinating. Sure, it's home to all of the old standbys but it's the wild selection of flavored vodkas that makes shopping in this section a psychedelic experience.
Pinnacle proves that French doesn't always equal classy with Atomic Fireball, Swedish Fish, cherry whipped cream, layer cake and fruit punch Flavored vodkas.
Three Olives corners the American-made market on gag inducing ideas like s'mores, supercola, fruit loops, and something that is just called Purple. There's also a head scratcher of a vodka with a label that reads dude. Apparently dude tastes like lemon and lime.
If your tastes run towards the preteen, Pucker Vodka has bottles modeled after Jolly Ranchers and Sour Patch Kids, complete with bright packaging that would look right at home in a candy store.
And if, by chance, you're in the market for a gym appropriate cocktail, please note that this location carries Devotion, a sugar- and gluten-free vodka with added casein protein.
Amateur cocktail concoctors and professional barmen, please feel free to leave your craziest flavored vodka ideas and recipes in the comments section.
