First things first, this is one of the few decks in our shop, not printed by The United States Playing Card Company. There are no cards rivaling these in terms of feel and that's unlikely to change in the future. Moreover we have quite of few of these left in stock and they will never be reprinted. Prices on eBay and US reseller websites for Absolut Vodka have surpassed $100 long time ago. And that's far from the limit.
 
In 2005 a Sweden company producing «Absolut» vodka cooperated with some of the most influential US magicians of the time (Kostya Kimlat, Lee Asher & Daniel Garcia) to popularize this alcoholic beverage in the states. After their shows in night clubs, bars and even colleges, performers presented a deck of Absolut Vodka playing cards as a souvenir. Later this deck was widely recognized in the cardistry community after being spotted in the hands of this art pioneers - Dan and Dave Buck.
 
Absolut Vodka Deck was printed using a very thin one-layered paper and feels 5 cards thinner compared to a regular deck of Bicycle. The finish on these cards is extremely smooth, which makes them soft and flexible. These cards somewhat resemble plastic ones, they easily bend in any direction and swiftly get back in shape.
 
Faces of numbered cards (Ace to 10), apart from extraordinary indices placement, feature unique cocktail recipies, which can be made by pouring some Absolut Vodka. In addition, court cards, Joker and Ace design look like nothing else. Make no mistake, a unique and extremely rare collectible item is in your hands.
