James Rackham, CEO, Emporia and his Ukrainian wife, Lyubov, have family living near Lviv in Ukraine and they are desperate to help the humanitarian effort. James Rackham says
“Like everyone else, we are feeling helpless at the situation unfolding in Ukraine and my wife and I want to support in any way we can. With Staritsky Levitsky vodka we have a way to help here in the UK, which is very important to us.”

The expertly produced Ukrainian vodka, Staritsky Levitsky, is named after mythical figures in Ukrainian history. Distilled near Lviv in Western Ukraine, the Staritsky Levitsky Private Celler Ultra-Premium Vodka is made in small batches
and rested for 60 days before bottling.
