🥃 Danzka Citrus
Danzka vodka flavoured with lemon: 40% ABV, aluminium bottle with yellow livery.
Danzka Citrus is a flavoured vodka from the Danish brand Danzka with a lemon taste. Its strength is 40% ABV, as in the classic Danzka Forty. The bottle is the same aluminium one, but with yellow livery, so it is easy to tell apart from other Danzka versions on the shelf.
According to Difford's Guide, the vodka is produced by Danish Distillers in Aalborg, and the brand belongs to Waldemar Behn. The review describes the taste as clean lemon zest with white pepper and gives it the highest rating among the Danzka versions the reviewer tried. According to Waldemar Behn, the base is shared across the range: whole-grain spirit and soft Nordic water.
Why it matters to you. Citrus is a flavoured vodka, which in the EU falls into a separate category from plain vodka: at least 37.5% ABV, with the added flavour predominant. Compare it with Danzka Currant and Danzka Cranraz, which have berry flavours at the same strength. The WHO reminds us that there is no safe level of alcohol consumption.
