Popov vodka is a brand of vodka that was first introduced in the United States in the 1950s. The brand is named after its founder, Nikolay Popov, who was a Russian immigrant. Popov vodka is made from grain and is distilled several times to achieve a high level of purity. It is a relatively inexpensive vodka that is popular among college students and those on a budget. However, its quality and taste are generally considered to be lower than more premium brands of vodka.
