Tito's vodka

I was pretty skeptical of this hooch, given that the guy advertised in onboard airlines magazines. But our local wine steward recommended it when I was reaching for a bottle of (higher priced) Kettle One. I'm glad he did. Really good vodka. Smoooooooth.

Maybe we should send Putin a case or two.

I've never had a hangover from vodka

Vito's is very good

Clear 10 vodka out of Kansas City is my current favorite

Even in Pakistan, the local vodka was the least debilitating of all the Murry's brand.

I can tell a big difference in the mouth feel of scotch and bourbon. But Vodka and Gin? They all taste different, but it's just flavor. To me it's like choosing cereal. Just get the one that suits your taste.
Never had a bad hangover from vodka. OTOH Ouzo is the most evil substance on earth.

YES! I have always wondered about this, but have never seen it anywhere in Europe or the US and couldn't even find it in a Google search last time I tried.

Best vodka I ever had was in Kiev and there was no label on the bottle. Those guys play hard. The 1 litre vodka bottles have bottle caps like beer bottles, not to be replaced. You drink it all at one sitting.

I try and avoid getting drunk. If I'm going for the gold, its generally red wine and whiskey for me. Nothing sweet. I guess everyone is different, but beer hangovers slay me. Game over.

+1 for Tito's. A 1.75 liter bottle goes for about $25 here in ATL.

Smoother than Stoli, almost $10 less costly than Ketel One.

I love tito's. I am in somewhat of a martini making craze as of late. Love extra dirty martinis and all I use is tito's.

When I want to be fancy I like to use Shevkoff if I splurge. Well priced and it's damn good stuf. Used to be called Shustoff.

Tito's is pretty good. My staple vodka is Svedka. $18 for a 1.75 liter bottle. Everyone is mixing it anyway and I really can't tell a big difference from most other $30-$40 bottles.
