Absolut was one of the early vodkas to offer flavors, first with Peppar and then with Citron. Absolut helped fuel the vodka explosion and helped give birth to immensely popular cocktails like the Cosmopolitan (which came directly out of the introduction of Absolut Citron).or Absolut Vodka, pure vodka doesnât mean a neutral vodka, and one of the key aspects of Absolut is that you can taste elements of the winter wheat.
