(I wonder if this might be illegal soon.)

Anyway, we haven’t tried the vodka yet, but we’re getting some to taste and will let you know.

Absolut launched its cities campaign in the 80s and has previously launched New Orleans and Los Angeles vodkas, with Boston being the third city to have a vodka named after it. So suck it, New York.

Absolut is donating $50,000 from sales of the Boston vodka to the local Charles River Conservancy and has erected a wall in Copley where famous Bostonians like Carleton Fisk and Amy Poehler wrote down their favorite Boston moments. The plaques will be auctioned off, and all proceeds will benefit the Conservancy also.

When asked why he went through these extreme lengths to bring back the prized berries to Boston, Bartender Stewart Bishop merely muttered, “I’ll be your huckleberry.”

One of the best lines in “Tombstone” — and by far Val Kilmer’s best role ever,  except maybe Iceman.
