Think vodka and you may think Russia or Poland. But Virginia? Richmond-based Cirrus Vodka is bidding to make you think of the commonwealth, too. Frosted bottles of the small-batch spirit are popping up on store shelves and behind a few local bars. It has a slight vanilla aroma and a faint citrus finish. A Cirrus martini can be ordered at Equinox, Clyde’s Georgetown, Clyde’s Gallery Place, 1789 Restaurant, Old Ebbitt Grill, and Bar Louie. It can be bought by the fifth at a few shops, including Ace Beverage (3301 New Mexico Ave., NW) for $21.49.

Gone are the robust bureaus for the Los Angeles Times, Newhouse News, and other once-healthy news organizations. Digital media bureaus now are taking their places with as many reporters and plenty of swagger.
