FAQ: our expert answers your questions

Why shot glasses for vodka?
Shot glasses (or shooters) are small, straight glasses with a capacity of 3 to 5 cl, perfectly suited to the traditional tasting of vodka. Their small size makes it possible to respect the proper serving measures (2 to 3 cl per pour), while concentrating the aromas. The shape favours a quick, precise service. In Russian tradition, vodka is drunk in one go, in a single mouthful, which is what justifies the reduced format.
At what temperature should vodka be served?
Vodka is ideally served between 0 and -5°C, which corresponds to a bottle left for several hours in the freezer. The intense cold tempers the most volatile aromas, gives vodka its characteristic silky texture and prepares the palate for the next tasting (caviar, smoked salmon). Serving vodka at room temperature, or barely chilled, would mask its quality and undermine its pairing with seafood.
Why a space for ice?
The space for ice, built into certain vodka sets, keeps the vodka chilled throughout the meal, without the need to return it to the freezer between each service. It is a particularly practical feature for longer receptions, where vodka is served across the course of the tasting. Remember to use crushed ice rather than ice cubes, for a more even thermal serve.
Can the vodka set be combined with a caviar set?
Yes, it is in fact the ideal combination for a complete tasting. The caviar set (with the tin on crushed ice) and the vodka set (with shot glasses and a space for ice) are the two central elements of the traditional service.

The vodka set, an inheritance of Russian tradition

The traditional vodka service took on its codified form in the Russian tsarist courts of the nineteenth century, where vodka and caviar were inseparable from a precise protocol. Vodka, kept icy in special carafes, was served in shot glasses, often of cut crystal. This codification is one of the most visible expressions of imperial Russian fine dining, whose influence is found today in cuisine the world over.

Our vodka set reimagines this tradition with a contemporary design. The shot glasses keep their classic format to respect the serving measures. The space for ice carries forward the logic of permanent chill. And the whole sits in visual harmony with our other tableware accessories, from the caviar set to the mother-of-pearl spoons.
