I've never really understood vodka. It doesn't seem to taste like anything. But my old lady loves Kettle One

In Russia, Russian Standard was drank by everybody and I thought it was pretty good. I've recently started seeing commercials for it although I haven't seen it for sale anywhere around here. I also tried a top-shelf called Beluga that was the best vodka I've ever had.

On this side of the world I drink Ketel One. If I'm feeling Polish, Sobieski is just fine with me too.

Welcome to the heart of North Carolina . The selection stinks.

So what is it that makes a good vodka? You can't really taste it?

This is a genuine question. I can understand how people can be a connoisseur of drinks like scotch because there are different and intricate flavors but I don't really get it with vodka.

Smoothness and purity.

True. However vodka is more diverse when it comes to making cocktails.

If you mix it, why go top shelf? And don't say hang overs, because thats some bullshit.

The ABC store in Cary near Cary High has had Russian Standard in stock the last two times ive been there (because Ive picked up a bottle each time). The price isn't too bad but it makes me want to cry when I realize how much more expensive it is here than when I bought it in Ukraine/Belarus.

i noticed last weekend that neptunes serves russian standard

I also prefer my vodka infused with juniper berries and other delicious botanical varieties, but if sticking to the question...

Best:
1. Chopin
2. Tito's
3. Ketel One

Budget:
1. Luksusowa
2. Svedka

I like potato vodkas because they have a more oily mouth feel and come across more substantial. Though I really do find gin FAR more appealing for martini cocktails and tonics. By the way, it drives me crazy how the gin selection keeps dropping more and more at ABC. I mean there really are just like 5 decent options.

ketel one is good stuff

Sobieski is good too, especially for the price
