Absolut is inviting imbibers to try different vodka flavors in its latest print campaign promoting the brand’s seven varieties, including Apeach and Vanilia, according to a story in the ad column of yesterday’s New York Times. After reading the story, I paused, thinking that the campaign’s "whimsical" tagline, "Find your flavour" had a familiar ring to it. Sure enough, Modernista! used the same line, albeit spelling flavor without the ‘u’, in a 2002 print campaign for Veryfine’s Fruit20 flavored water (if you don’t have access to the Adweek archive, you’ll just have to trust me).
