This bottling of a vodka called Blavod is coloured black by the addition of black catechu, a plant extract from the heartwood of the Gerber acacia tree, which is native to South and South-East Asia.
England, unlike its northern neighbour Scotland, is not very well known for its whisky, although there were distilleries in London, Liverpool and Bristol until the late 19th century. It was not until the early 2000s that new distilleries began to be built, and since then the production of English whisky has experienced an upswing.
