History credits the creation of vodka to a Russian Orthodox monk called Isidore. Located in the Chudov Monastery in Moscow, he created his concoction based upon his exceptional knowledge of distillation processes.
Known originally as “bread wine”, his creation was produced for many years for the Grand Duchy of Moscow. His “bread wine” was later coined as Vodka in 1751 by Empress Elizabeth. The rest, as they say, is history.
