True Russian Vodka
The history of vodka reads like the history of Russia. Join the Thirsty Traveler as he retraces the epic footsteps of czars and revolutionaries alike. We’ll visit the palaces and promenades of Moscow before catching a train to the formerly "closed city" of Kirov and the birthplace of true Russian Vodka. Here, the Thirsty Traveler will visit a typical country dacha and discover the vodka-laced joys of banya. Don't forget to sniff the bread, comrade!
