In the first instance I try to discern the main constituents of aroma and flavour and whether there is any aftertaste associated with the drink. Then a larger portion is taken into the mouth and swallowed without allowing it to rest on the palate (Shot style). My sampling sessions will begin first with a small sip allowing the Vodka to rest upon the palate before it is swallowed. (Flavoured vodkas may be drank warmer yet, perhaps chilled in the refrigerator for several hours before the tasting. If it is too warm… well that just isn’t how Vodka is normally drank. If vodka is too cold, it may numb the taste buds, and the light nuances of flavour in the Vodka may be lost. Although some prefer Vodka to be chilled in the freezer overnight before tasting I prefer the temperature to be just above zero degrees Celsius. My Vodka tastings will begin with a chilled vodka sample in a shot style glass.
The style of company of course is completely up to the individuals involved. The style of food is in the vein of fresh bread or buns, potato dishes, sausage or ham, and pickled foods. A traditional Vodka tasting would normally include food and good company. Vodka is also a drink which is never consumed in a vacuum. Whereas whisky and rum are generally approached at room temperature and perhaps with a little water to open them up Vodka is generally chilled, and one would rarely add water or ice when drinking Vodka neat. Permits will not be issued during any burn bans in effect from the Worcester County Fire Marshal.I believe that tasting and reviewing Vodka must be approached quite differently than tasting and reviewing whisky or rum. These types of training activities are monitored by the Fire Marshal and tracked by Environmental Programs. IN the absence of that permit, the only other open burns permitted are conducted by our volunteer fire companies as training excercises. The programs goal is to evaluate and permit open burning sites and respond to reports of unpermitted fires with the fire marshal and eastern shore compliance personnel with the Maryland Department of the Environment.Ī burning permit is required from the Environmental Programs Department for any open air burning.
The Environmental Programs Department may investigate inquiries about pollutants and other nuisances that may affect air quality.
