Vodka served in the best gastronomic restaurants

The standing of a restaurant can be measured by the reputation given by its clients, colleagues and the media. The best names in gastronomy, known for their expertise and excellence, must constantly propose the best food and alcohol and consequently vodka. Vodka is the spirit served the most frequently in gastronomic restaurants.  Most of the time there are less references in vodka on their wine list than there are in wine. However, it is important to remember that vodka has the biggest consumption of commercialised alcoholic drinks in the world, with slightly more that 500 million cases of nine litres in 2005. In any case, gastronomic restaurants need to propose the most delicious and prestigious vodkas to their customers.  Moreover, vodka is one of the main alcoholic drinks in the composition of cocktails.

The wine list in a gastronomic restaurant grows richer from year to year with new vodka references. Over time, it improves, to continue proposing the best in vodka. In this, gastronomic restaurants can count on the work and passion of its professionals notably chefs and sommeliers.

In these prestigious restaurants, the most experienced, talented, and demanding professionals know each other. They are the stars and the elite of French cooking and its dishes and drinks. The wine list, the bar and the wine cellar of a gastronomic restaurant are showcases of its standing. The reputation and the credibility of a restaurant is acquired when the staff of the restaurant have proved themselves.  To obtain recognition from the public, the medias, and professionals of catering, a gastronomic restaurant must be continuously at the summit of its art by aiming for perfection. Restaurants that want to be considered as a reference need to be exemplary. It is the same for vodkas on the wine list of gastronomic restaurants. They have to be outstanding.

To attain this excellence, gastronomic restaurants must propose to their customers the best productions and names in vodka. Therefore, they are likely to offer exceptional vodkas on their wine list.

The Best vodkas served in award-winning gastronomic restaurants

A good gastronomic restaurant is supported by reviews, which are made by clients, colleagues and the medias. Some reviews are also shared by jurys, these experts are likely to discern titles, prizes, and other awards. For a gastronomic restaurant one of the most prestigious awards is the acquisition of one or several Michelin stars by the Michelin Guide.

The attribution of stars by the Michelin Guide is based on identical criteria to guarantee the coherence of the best restaurant’s distinction. There are five criteria: the quality of the products including wines and spirits, the control of the cooking and flavours, the personality of the chef in his cooking and in his menu and wine menu, value for money in his menu and wine list and consistency over the years in both the menu and the wine list.

The inspectors representing the jury only judge « what is on the plate » and therefore what is in the glass of vodka. The stars only reward the quality of the cooking and the ingredients which are a part of it, notably vodkas.

The Michelin Guide stars enable the restaurant’s wine list to be classed :

• 3 stars indicate that the cooking, the wine, and the vodkas are remarkable and are well worth a visit to the restaurant.
• 2 stars means that the restaurant, the wine, and vodkas are excellent and should be tried.
• 1 star signals a good restaurant and good wine and vodkas in its category.

Choosing a vodka served in an award-winning gastronomic restaurant is the assurance of having an exquisite drink as it is a part of the alcohols which harmonize with the dish. Vodkas referenced on the wine list of gastronomic restaurants are an integral part of the ingredients judged for the award. Trust the expertise of the jury and the knowledge of chefs and wine waiters of gastronomic restaurants to choose your vodka. 

Top Vodkas according to the chefs and Sommeliers

Gastronomic Restaurants are places where the best products and the most talented professionals go together. A gastronomic restaurant is not only food and drink, but above all the men who prepare them. Chefs and wine waiters are the guarantee of the excellence and prestige of a gastronomic restaurant. They are like the conductor of each well-known restaurant. The head chef of a restaurant has to offer the most creative and the best quality dishes. It is important to be aware that certain well-known chefs elaborate dishes from vodka. The chef should also be attentive to the quality of the drinks accompanying the meal, especially vodka. Vodka is moreover the alcohol traditionally drunk with one of the most prestigious of all dishes: caviar. The wine waiter’s task is to define the richest wine list with the best tasting wines and spirits. He must also supply the wine cellar and the bar with selected bottles of vodka. The chef and the sommelier at the head of a gastronomic restaurant are therefore both responsible for the content of their dishes and their alcoholic drinks. The prestige of the restaurant is the result of their work.

To choose the most complete and most coherent wine list, chefs and wine waiters of gastronomic restaurants are continuously searching for new discoveries in Vodkas. They are constantly searching for perfection, for the ideal, the best flavoured, the ultimate vodka to enrich their wine list, wine cellar and bar.

To compose their wine list with the best referenced vodkas, chefs and wine waiters in gastronomic restaurants test them and share their opinions. They go tasting vodka all over the world in search of a rarity. They travel over agricultural land to meet producers. Chefs and sommeliers regularly visit distilleries and meet the professionals who give life to each bottle of vodka.

Vodka can come from the transformation of several agricultural products. Most of the time it is made from cereals (rye and wheat) and potatoes, but other agricultural products can be used like beetroot (treacle) and fruit (apples and plums). So, each producer has his own recipe, method of production as well as specific tools to give life to this subtle elixir. Fermentation, distillation, ageing and bottling of vodka right up to the marketing of the product, the wine list of a gastronomic restaurant is also the result of an important amount of work by the producer of this alcoholic drink. gastronomic restaurants import therefore the best productions of vodka from all over the world.
