Vodka consumption culture
Among strong alcoholic drinks, vodka confidently occupies one of the leading positions in various countries of the world in terms of popularity and quantity of consumption per capita. But the culture of drinking this type of alcohol and the traditions associated with it vary significantly depending on the country.Russia is considered to be the birthplace of vodka. Many people call vodka one of the country’s national symbols. Its use is a real ritual here; it is drunk for any reason and even without one. But at the same time, Russians are far from being in the top ten most “drinking” countries, and modern standards for the strength of the drink appeared only at the turn of the 14th-16th centuries, and even then they were brought to Russia from neighboring Poland. Before this, in Rus' they only drank mead and other low-alcohol drinks and infusions. Vodka in Russia is consumed mainly in its pure form and always with a good snack.
Surprisingly, the prototype of modern vodka appeared around the 10th-11th centuries in the Middle East and Western Asia. There, due to strict religious prohibitions, the water-alcohol solution was used for medical purposes. But as a kind of tribute to tradition, even in such a Muslim country as the United Arab Emirates, special courier services of the alcohol delivery Dubai same day category offer foreigners round-the-clock delivery of various types of vodka from famous world brands to the doors of their office, home or hotel room.
In Europe, vodka has not received such widespread distribution and widespread popularity as in some other countries. This is mainly due to the fact that there she experienced serious pressure from competing local spirits - whiskey, brandy, cognac, and so on. But it should be taken into account that vodka came to Russia from the countries of Eastern Europe, where they have their own strong national traditions of drinking this type of alcohol.
Vodka, like other strong alcoholic drinks, was brought to North America by emigrants. There it is most often used as one of the components of numerous cocktails. There are practically no special drinking traditions in Canada, the USA and Mexico - they can drink vodka there in any quantity, in any combination and at any time of the day.
The situation with this is much more subtle in the Middle East. In the UAE, for example, the online alcohol delivery Dubai service delivers alcohol (including vodka) around the clock. But, firstly, this is only available to people who are not bound by Sharia law. And secondly, local laws are extremely strict regarding the public consumption of alcohol outside the walls of a house, bar or club, as well as appearing on the street while intoxicated. All this naturally improves drinking culture.
A special culture of strong alcohol consumption exists in the countries of Southeast Asia. In Japan, for example, the local variety of vodka - sake - carries a certain sacred meaning and each sip of it represents a whole ritual.
