  4. Basically it means the vodka can have the characteristics of whatever it was distilled from. Spirits distilled to over 95% abv still can retain taste and aromas from their base. For example, I received a sample "neutral" spirit from a company that makes NA wine by stripping out the alcohol from the wine. The spirit retained some of the flavor from the wines even though it was 190 proof. Under the prior definition from the TTB this couldn't be sold as vodka because it had "distinctive character, aroma, taste." A good product I found out in the market was from Copperworks in Seattle. Their malt vodka has a distinctive character and taste from the malt. Distilleries don't need to distill multiple times or run through carbon filters to remove as much flavor as possible anymore. Instead, the vodka can reflect the characteristics of the base that was fermented. I think it's a nice step forward for craft distilleries.
