Vodka safety
When you buy expensive vodka in Russia you want to be sure that nobody poured some home-made stuff into a branded bottle. Sometimes it happens. All you need is supply of empty bottles from babushkas, a simple instrument to plug bottles, tap water and pure alcohol. Not with new Nemiroff. Note the red ring around the bottle neck. If someone opens the bottle it is gone and no one will ever manage to restore it.

And the red line looks cool too. Is it used as part of Nemiroff's branding?
"No one will ever manage to restore it"
That's a hot one! I'm reminded of the old USSR anthem, which said the Soviet Union was unbreakable and would last forever! Russians certainly do like to go in for hyperbole.
I think they invented these bottles for India, where a lot of fake liquor was being sold off in recycled bottles as original, expensive stuff.
