We also represent
an ultra-premium KAUFFMAN VODKA brand, which is distilled using
a unique vintage technology. The goal of creating KAUFFMAN VODKA
was to produce vodka that would be associated with an elite group
of the finest spirits in the world and the object of national pride
for Russia. Notwithstanding the fact that the production of KAUFFMAN
VODKA was launched quite recently, in the year 2002 and has already
become one of the most ambitious projects in Russian vodka history
and has won the leading positions in the Russian market of ultra-premium
spirits. The idea of creating the only vintage vodka in the world
belongs to the CEO of WHITEHALL GROUP, Dr. Mark Kaoufman who is
also Academician of the International Academy of Viticulture and
Winemaking, Chevalier de L’Ordre du Merit Agricole (France),
Comendador de la Orden Bernando O’Higgins and the author of
series of books about wines.
In the
beginning of 2005 WH IMPORT COMPANY, a constituting part of WHITEHALL
GROUP, started its exportation program of KAUFFMAN VODKA. We are
currently distributing in the UK, Germany, Switzerland. At the moment
we are looking forward to expanding our distribution network all
over the world and would be delighted to cooperate with professional
importers/distributors and retailers who are interested in presenting
the KAUFFMAN VODKA brand in the most prestigious restaurants, clubs,
bars, shops, hotels.
| We
are currently seeking distribution in the following markets:
North America, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, China,
Duty Free areas, South Africa, Italy, Spain, France, Canaries
Islands, Austria, Australia and New Zealand and others. |

The innovative
approach to producing the only vintage vodka in the
world involves using natural ingredients from a particular
year, producing spirit and vodka itself at the same distillery
at the same time and in limited quantity and monitoring every
stage of the process.
To
produce the finest vintage vodka we have decided on certain
selection criteria:
- The
wheat of one single harvest is used only in the years when
the finest wheat grains are identified;
- Choice
of regions varies from year to year depending on the quality
of wheat production;
- The
unique design of the bottles is realized at Saint Gobaine
facility in France, the bottles themselves are made of the
equivalent quality to perfume glass;
- Annual
volume of the vintage vodka being produced is limited:
KAUFFMAN LUXURY VINTAGE (1.0L) –
2 700 cases.
KAUFFMAN SPECIAL SELECTED VINTAGE (0.7L)
– 5 000 cases.
