Wine Enthusiast Dubs Purus Vodka a Top Spirit -- Now, What the Heck Is Purus Vodka?
Categories: Drink Drank Drunk
Hunh?
It seems Purus -- made with water from the Alps! and organic Italian wheat! -- was launched (under the cover of darkness? while I was out of the country?) a few years ago by Anheuser-Busch. As best I can gather, Anheuser-Busch never made Purus available in St. Louis.
I use the past tense when referring to Anheuser-Busch's involvement because the company no longer owns the brand. A Missouri-based company called Fire Tail Brands does, though the Purus brand is once again in the process of being sold.
Has anyone tried Purus? Or seen it locally?
