Absolut Orient Apple has 'secret' ingredient

Just when you think the variety of infused vodkas must have topped out, along comes another.

This one is Absolut Orient Apple, now available in some U.S. markets. Most tasting results say the fruit is evident more in the aroma than in the taste. That may be because rather than an apple, the "Orient Apple" on this infusion is more commonly known as the gently flavored Asian pear.

Absolut Orient Apple is available at a suggested retail price of $20.95 for the 750ml bottle.
