Vodka Drinkers wanted here!

[Guest]

Since I m not canadian and I don't get raped on booze charges, I usually pick up a magnum for the room during every single trip I make. Last trip it was Belvedere and this trip is going to be Esmé recommended by the "spirits" expert at Total Wine. Have you guys tried this before? Apparently its suppose to be the shit and kicks Belvy and Goose's ass?



Per their website:

What are your favorite vodka brands?

Never seen that before. I usually stick with belvedere or goose. Altough Nassau introduced me to effen and that's pretty damn good too.

[sydneygirl]

haven't seen this before & googled it out of curiosity.
my preference is usually for rye based vodka over wheat, but this one has some good reviews.

it does look like another marketing ploy like grey goose, (american owned, but distilled in france so people think its better quality) but as long as its decent doesn't really matter.

Yea I agree with you! Wow I m so tempted to open it and taste test to let you guys know. But its only meant to be cracked in Vegas!

I've also seen a commercial that claims that Smirnoff was chosen over Goose and Belvedere in a taste test.

[Koot]

That's because Smirnoff is the Beez Neez. I figured everyone knew that.

I drink Clear 10 because it's made a couple miles from me. Support local small businesses!

I stick by what I said yesterday...why pay more for a name?

I'm gonna have to try that.

Vodka is a huge marketing scam... The only real factors are what it's distilled from and how many times it is distilled... Try Titos Handmade Vodka... http://titosvodka.com/titos.html

I infuse my own vodka with pinapple... Two 1.75's soaked in 4 chopped pinapples for one week... It tastes like pinapple juice but it's pure Vodka... Watch out... It will bite you in the As

Anyone drink ciroc ? It's suppose to be made from grapes and distilled 5 times.

[juan]

Ciroc is incredible. Have it on ice with a twist of lime. Now every time I see someone taking shots of goose I feel sick in the stomach... then I sip on my ciroc and feel like a million again.

The thing I don't get about vodka is that everyone disagrees with each other. For instance, despite the fact that I - and many others - hate Smirnoff in blind taste tests it has done better than premium brands. On a related note, I've heard people say Ciroc is amazing, and others say it's disgusting.

[Charles~]

Ciroc has a different flavor.

That flavor is called amazing.

Amen brother. Vodka is a damn paradox!
