Belaya Rus (Belarusian: Белая Русь) is a brand of vodka distilled in Belarus from a blend of premium hard winter wheat (25%) and rye (75%) using pure artesian water drawn from wells 300 m (1,000 ft) deep. The alcohol content of this spirit is 40%, (eighty proof), priced similarly to Smirnoff and Svedka. "Belaya Rus" literally translates as "White Ruthenia".
