Workhorse

In 1953 when Koskenkorva Vodka was born in the village of Koskenkorva, most of the work on the farms was done with the help of workhorses. Back in those days we employed a special breed, a very hardworking Finnish horse that helped us grow barley so good that it was used to create an award winning Koskenkorva Vodka. This zingy ginger beer classic is named as an homage to those amazing horses that helped build the product that we have today.

The flavor of this mule-style cocktail is perfect to showcase how Koskenkorva Vodka shines in a mixed drink. It brings an unusually full body and clarity to the taste of the cocktail. In this drink the lack of spirit burn isn't very easily illustrated because of the natural burning sensation from the ginger, but what is easy to notice is the clarity of the ginger flavor and the lack of side flavors in the drink.
