The absolute best Vodka on earth! I've tried just about every ultra premium Vodka there is and none can compare to this one right here. If you can find it...

This is why the high end Vodka market is effectively dead... it's the worst category of alcohol to sell in. But that aside by defaut I would recommend Polish Vodkas just based on tradition over French. Very rare and unknown - Snow Leopard Vodka - 6 times distilled in Poland and only like $29.99 per 750ML... it doesn't get better but is very hard to find. There is little to no aging in Vodka so while I am sure that Vodka is terrific, I can assure you I can find something awfully close up to $30... Also, if anyone ever says Tito's / Grey Goose are good vodkas, you should pretty much get banned from posting on this forum lol. |

That being said, yes, Vodka is generally a play it safe mixer type of alcohol for me. One that I don't associate with sipping. The exception being this and my second favorite, ZYR. But no, you won't find ANY Vodka close the sheer smoothness and unique flavor of this XO. That I am confident of. Quote:

Looks like Snow Leopard is available here. I'll pick up a bottle next time I accidentally find myself at Total Wine... I don't get the "hype" over Tito's, Grey Goose et al. either. Especially Grey Goose...

However I would not call it a premium vodka and for just a few bucks more; I could find something far better. If one is into just mixing drinks... Ketel is almost too good lol. |

Can never go wrong with Blantons, if you can find it. Where I am in Ohio it seems near impossible to find. Although I have a colleague that travels to Connecticut frequently and it seems to be given out like candy there?
If I can't get ahold of Blantons i've been into Angels Envy Finished Rye |

Woodford is still my go to bourbon. I've tried others but I always end up liking Woodford better and the price is decent also. |

Woodford is okay but imo it is way overhyped and overpriced for what it is. I’ve had way better in the same and lower pricepoints. I’ll pick up 1792 or buffalo trace all day before i buy another bottle of woodford

Yes 1792 is the same price as woodford but my opinion is its much better taste and far smoother at roughly the same proof

For my vodka it is Stoli - but more for tradition; don't think I've tried even a handful of others (aside from 'well drink nights' that are best forgotten). Even if it isn't traditionally aged, you will benefit from getting one that is at least a year or two old, to let the nasties filter out some. Once I graduated from HS and didn't need to hide that I was drinking, vodka lost a lot of its appeal

So not usually a Patron fan at all as it is one of the most produced overpriced tequilas out there; however, I decided to give this a shot-
It's one of the cheapest Extra Anejos out there- I must say its phenomenal... $89.99 at Total Wine... sharp taste, very reminiscent of Codigo 1530, definitely notes of whiskey barrel aging in it... |

I never thought much of vodka, or at least with spending much time looking for a great one. With the goal for the best to taste like nothing, seems kind of pointless. I drink it sometimes but mid priced mixed with something. At least it doesn't cost much. Did a blind tasting at my house recently, Tito's, Ketel One, and Costco. If the goal is to not taste like anything I thought Costco won, I thought Ketel One had the best taste and Tito's was last either way. Just my opinion. Now mostly buy the Costco 1.75.
