Kazakh vodka has now taken the lead and occupies the top positions of most alcoholic tops. There are several brands that connoisseurs of strong alcohol prefer. But vodka from Kazakhstan also has a drawback - there are too many surrogates on our market. Kazakh vodka has been counterfeited too often lately.
How to explain the popularity of alcohol from Kazakhstan
It has always been believed that vodka is a native Russian drink. However, over time, neighboring states also began to produce "fire water" and were very successful in this matter. According to reviews, Kazakh vodka is in no way inferior to Russian, and in some respects even overtook it. After all, it is made according to an old recipe that has been passed down from generation to generation. It is thanks to him that the drink has a natural and pleasant taste. Another significant plus is that the quality of Kazakh vodka far exceeds its price.
Production of alcoholic beverages in Kazakhstan is constantlyis expanding, so there may be more liquor from this country in the near future.
Fears of Russian manufacturers
Kazakh drinks were often served at the table before. With good quality, they always cost a little cheaper than domestic ones. And to this day the situation remains unchanged. Moreover, preference for Kazakh vodka is given not only at home, but also in neighboring states. Of course, this fact greatly upsets Russian manufacturers.
In such a situation, it becomes more and more difficult to sell your own products. The consumer bypasses domestic products, opting for inexpensive alcohol from a neighboring state.
According to research, one out of five purchased bottles of vodka is Kazakh. Of course, it's no secret to anyone that buying cheap alcohol is very risky. Therefore, now the prices for Kazakh vodka have begun to grow gradually. However, this situation did not make this drink less popular.
Which Kazakh vodka is the best
Among the alcoholic products of Kazakhstan, there are several brands that deserve close attention. These drinks are popular not only in their homeland, but also in our country. The high-quality alcohol of this country is distinguished by its special softness, the absence of a hangover syndrome, and does not give a characteristic burning sensation. But this does not apply to all products from Kazakhstan. Below are the brands to look out for.
- Kokshetau Mineral Waters is considered the leading Kazakh producer. Vodka "Khaoma" comes from this plant. It has been on the market for almost twenty years. This alcohol is included in the list of the best spirits in the world. This is the only brand from Kazakhstan, which got into the world ratings. Moreover, in 2016 the company received an eco-certificate, as it produced vodka based on mineral water from a source located in the Akmola region.
- The most popular manufacturer in the homeland is Wimpex Geom. This company produces many brands such as Reaper, White Horse, Slavyanka and Zhuravushka.
- The most popular brand in Russia is considered to be "Kazakhstan" from the manufacturer AkRossPishcheprom LLP. Its only minus is that it is this “fire water” that is most often faked. Trademarks such as Dombyra, Chukotka, 5 Continents, Goszakaz and Besparmak are also produced from this plant.
Interesting fact
The life of most liquor brands is short, about three years. Then the producers try to change the name, and the same vodka appears on store shelves under a different label.
At the moment there are about fifty companies that produce Kazakh vodka. The most popular and largest among them are the Almaty and Petropavlovsk plants, and Semirechye and Bahus-Astana can also be referred to as well-known ones. Most of the production remains in the country, while ten million liters of alcohol are exported.
Counterfeit products
Seventy percent of Kazakh vodka, the photo of which is located below, enters the Russian Federation illegally. Moreover, very often counterfeit products are of very high quality directly from the factory, but for some reason they were not allowed to pass through legally. For example, in the border areas, the sale of cheap alcohol is very common. But there is danger here. Illegally imported products are not controlled in any way, so counterfeit products can be easily sold under their guise.
Tip: Do not buy alcohol from your hands. It cannot be sold simply on the street or in a neighboring apartment. A quality product can only be purchased at certified points of sale.
How to choose the right vodka
There are a few rules here:
- Quality Kazakh vodka will definitely have a factory stamp. Such a mark can be both on the cork and on the label, and even on the glass of the bottle.
- The bottling dates on the cap and the label must match, otherwise it is a clear fake.
- The label must show the exact address of the factory. If there is no city specification, then, most likely, these are products of a non-existent factory.
- Kazakh vodka cannot be very cheap. Kazakhstan has a minimum price for alcohol, in ruble terms it is 125 rubles.
Where to buy vodka from Kazakhstan
Of course, it is unlikely that counterfeit products will be sold in a specialized liquor store. Also, the quality of products is monitored in large supermarket chains.
One morerecommendation: it is worth buying well-known, proven brands. Such products have many degrees of protection that are difficult to counterfeit.
