From the latter ones, one can separate bitter tinctures, such as Russian Yubileynaya (anniversary vodka) and Pertsovka (pepper vodka).

Russians and Poles have made vodka in flavors such as okhotnichya ("hunter's vodka," flavored with clove, ginger and other spices) and zubrowka (bison grass) for centuries. Phillips Distilling Co. made colored cherry and lime vodkas in the 1950s, and the 1980s brought Absolut Peppar and Stolichnaya Limonnaya into local bars. What is new in flavored vodkas is the abundance of choice. In the past five years, 115 new flavored vodkas have been introduced, according to the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States (DISCUS)."

The Russians and Poles in particular still market dozens of flavors. Some of the better known types are: Kubanskaya - Vodka flavored with an infusion of dried lemon and orange peels. Limonnaya - Lemon-flavored Vodka, usually with a touch of sugar added. Okhotnichya -"Hunter s" Vodka is flavored with a mix of ginger, cloves, lemon peel, coffee, anise and other herbs and spices. It is then blended with sugar and a touch of a wine similar to white port. A most unusual Vodka. Pertsovka -Pepper-flavored Vodka, made with both black peppercorns and red chili peppers. Starka - "Old" Vodka, a holdover from the early centuries of Vodka production, which can be infused with everything from fruit tree leaves to brandy, Port, Malaga wine, and dried fruit. Some brands are aged in oak casks. Zubrovka - Zubrowka in Polish; Vodka flavored with buffalo (or more properly "bison") grass, an aromatic grass favored by the herds of the rare European bison. In recent years numerous other flavored Vodkas have been launched on the world market. The most successful of these have been fruit flavors such as currant and orange."
