If you've seen the photographs of Robert
Mapplethorpe or videos of Freddie Mercury
performing with Queen, then you've seen
the influence of the late great Touko Valio
Laaksonen—otherwise known as Tom of
Finland—in action. Born in the Finnish town
of Kaarina in 1920, Laaksonen blazed trails
through the 20th-century art world with his
bold depictions of the male figure.
And if you see a similarly daring, playful
image on a bottle of vodka, then you'll know
it can only be the brand that bears his name.
Tom of Finland Organic Vodka was created
to celebrate all that Laaksonen's work
represents—courage, joy, and the freedom to
live authentically.
Naturally, the spirit within that bottle is
likewise authentic (and it has the gold
medals from numerous prestigious tasting
competitions to prove it). Made from 100%
organic wheat and rye with pure Arctic
water and no added sugar, the vodka
delivers clean aromas with subtle hints
of rye spice and a palate that's soft yet
characterful. What's more, a portion of the
proceeds from every bottle sale goes to the
Tom of Finland Foundation, created in 1984
to preserve and exhibit erotic art.
Here, in short, is the brand enlightened,
liberated drinkers everywhere have been
looking for.
Fortune Favors the Bold:
TOM OF FINLAND
ORGANIC VODKA
