Detective Inspector Jason Gourley said: "I would ask members of the public to be mindful when buying bottles of this brand of vodka in Hull and the local area as it may well be illicit, particularly if it is priced cheaply.
"I would urge people to check the seal is intact, the labels are straight and the bottles have the genuine Stolichnaya markings.
"Most licensees do operate within the law. The minority that choose to be involved in the distribution of counterfeit alcohol will be discovered and appropriate action will be taken against them."
