If You have a possibility, try Koskenkorva - it's Finnish and has good taste and nice story behind it. From Russia we recommend Beluga. And from our Estonian produce if You get Your hand on it, try Moe Pipra Viin (it is Chilli Vodka) or Moe Mahe.
We have just recently got into chillies and currently having about 25 plants of 4-5 different species. We live in Estonia so not a lot of sun during most years.
