Product history & little-known facts
Smirnoff is a historic vodka house established in 1864, and Diageo notes its signature liquid is produced using a process of three distillations and ten stages of filtration, designed for clarity and smoothness. That clean vodka profile is exactly why Smirnoff’s ready-to-drink range works so well with fruit flavours—raspberry stays vibrant, not heavy.
Fun extra: Smirnoff Ice has been positioned globally as a party staple since the late 1990s, helping popularise the modern RTD moment.
Accolades (separate section)
Awards can differ by expression and market, but the Smirnoff brand is widely recognised for quality: Diageo’s Bar Academy notes Smirnoff is “one of the most awarded vodka brands” in recent years and highlights a Gold win at the 2024 San Francisco World Spirits Competition (for the vodka brand).
