Kryshtal Etalon (Belarusian: Крышталь Эталон) is a vodka distilled from wheat and rye and made in Belarus. It is distilled four times and filtered just once, using a unique and patented method, which leaves the vodka crystal clear but without any reduction in the flavour or aroma, according to its label. The alcohol content of this spirit is 40%.
Minsk Kristall is a well known distillery in Belarus and is one of the oldest vodka producers in the former USSR, having been in operation since 1893.
