THE RUSSIAN
VODKA MUSEUM
The first tavern where one could buy vodka was opened in
Russia in 1533. The beverage was brought into the country
even earlier, at the beginning of the 15th century. The museum
dedicated to vodka was opened in St Petersburg just recently,
in 2001. It is the only museum of this sort in the world.
The exhibition of the museum contains various materials, including
a great collection of vodka bottles. One of the distinguished
features of the museum is that visitors can taste vodka in
the special room.
