Citron became the go-to vodka for the Cosmopolitan in many bars, and it remains one of the best-known citrus vodkas. It suits anyone who likes a bright tonic-based drink but prefers vodka to gin, and it brings fresh fruit to sours without squeezing a dozen lemons. Wodka Company delivers Absolut Citron throughout the UK, dispatched from our shop in north London.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Absolut Citron tastes like\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh lemon zest and a hint of lime peel over clean grain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright and dry, with candied lemon, a little grapefruit pith and soft wheat underneath.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crisp and citrusy, closing on a faintly bitter peel note.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt pours completely clear and tastes far drier than a lemon liqueur such as limoncello.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to drink Absolut Citron\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChill it well and pour it over ice with tonic and a slice of lemon, or keep a bottle in the freezer for small, ice-cold sips before a seafood supper. It sits naturally beside smoked salmon, grilled prawns, a lemony crab salad or fish and chips with plenty of vinegar.

Absolut Mandrin swaps tart citrus for sweeter orange and mandarin, which leaves Citron as the driest of the three citrus bottles. If you like bitter citrus, Finlandia Grapefruit offers a pithier alternative at 37.5%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Absolut Company produces Citron in Sweden.
