BLIND TASTING THE 10 CHEAPEST VODKAS WE COULD FIND!

[@Isaac_L..]

Now put the seagrims in a blind test with more expensive vodkas (Grey Goose, Titos, Kettle One, etc). I'm curious how it fares.

[@hamcheeselettucemayosandwich]

There’s very little between good and bad vodka and that very little doesn’t have anything to do with spending money on branding. Abundance of grain is the key so you can have a better selection of grain that requires less cycles of distillation.

ive tried every vodka in finlands alcohol store >D

we? you are not the same i buy the cheapest each day

[@RandomGuy37]

​@@Pvt.Parts13Considering how Finnish alcohol prices are, that must've been really damn expensive

[@Pvt.Parts13]

@@RandomGuy37 i lied, most expensive bottle ive bought was 68e belvedere and it was horrible tasting best one was stoli gold i really liked it, stumbrass and gustav were allso good. we allso have this thing called "pontikka" its good too ;)

[@chadg1476]

The worst cheap vodka I've ever had was Dubra... That shit literally tastes like a skunk sprayed in your drink! Absolutely disgusting but I did finish the bottle off lol

[@ryanrudder2275]

Mr. Boston for me. When I was a freshman in college over ten years ago, it was the absolute cheapest alcohol you could buy, about $10 for a handle. It tasted like straight rubbing alcohol, but it definitely did the job. Years later, I went to a hibachi place and the chefs were using it as a cheap alcohol to clean the grills lol. Can barely stomach straight vodka nowadays after too many times drinking that wretched liquid.

[@DrCarlBooze]

Hanger 1 is the absolute worst I have ever had and it is sold as a premium vodka somehow. Elit is my favorite when I can find it.

[@That_dude_who_knows_some_stuff]

Oh please do a cheapest whiskey or bourbon version!!

[@randomeddie185]

Are we just not going to mention that they liked Skol? They've been talking shit on Skol for a long time and when they finally taste it blind they like it.

[@PoogDoesStuff]

you never understood their point then lol. its the hangover thats hell. not 1 shot down your throat lol..

[@PoogDoesStuff]

it taste alright bc it has sugar in it. which is why u will feel like absolute shit the next day. any vodka is easy to take down how you feel in the morning is how you buy again

[@ConstructBreakdown]

@@PoogDoesStuff That's not how sugar works. I'm pretty sure its the congeners, like propanol.

I'm glad yall gave Skor the respect it deserves. My favorite vodka for smuggling into movie theaters and mixing into a blue icee.

[@toddwebb7521]

I have Stockholm syndromed myself into liking Popov as a cheap vodka just because it's not quite as terrible as a couple of the others I tried before it.

[@bedplanks1641]

Kamchatka better

[@toddwebb7521]

To this day….a handle of Popov is $11.49 where I live. I drink good stuff (still budget but for bourbon Evan Williams Bonded) but when I need to get $hitfaced Popov never fails!!! Also….$hitty booze does NOT create a stronger hangover.

I'm convinced Popov just has inconsistent batches. I've had bottles of it that were incredibly smooth, but also sometimes it's harsh af.

[@ianwalker2205]

Seagrams Extra Smooth is BANGER. Gladly take it over Titos literally any day

[@That_dude_who_knows_some_stuff]

Citrus/cleaning supplies flavor is usually in the “heads” coming off the still, and smoky/wet dog/wet basement flavor is the “Tails” of the spirit run. The cheaper stuff has these things the more pricy stuff would have cut out of the final product

[@matthewmorin7016]

You need to do all the main categories like this.

[@joshwarren7569]

I use to drink Fris before. Thought it was ok mid shelf. Ok for mixing 😊😅😂❤🎉😢😅😊

[@johnjuhasz9125]

When you said “this sucks” on the third one I busted out laughing.

[@andrewsheiman8574]

I think it'd be cool for you to do a taste test 'guide'. Like, you called some of these "clean", "flabby", etc. It'd be interesting to know what those mean, and how to evaluate alcohols by taste

[@djm712]

Seagrams has been my go to for years now! Happy to see it holds up.

[@billybee3423]

Seagram’s has an all around almost mid-level product line, and if you’re mixing it for drinks you can’t go wrong. Especially with a 7&7 and lime! Yeah, I’m old. LOL

I actually prefer Platinum over tons of vodkas (Tito’s, smirnoff, absolut, ect). My go to is Ketel One

[@dawidmatys]

Someone bought me a handle of Platinum as a “gift” one time. My wife used it to make hand sanitizer during Covid. It would have ended up going down the drain otherwise

[@vgshwk]

At one time Smirnoff and seagrams were about your only choices for vodka in the USA.

[@dionito70]

You should add the Costco and Trader Joe's ones to this. I like the cheapest American Kirkland brand one at Costco for mixing and making limoncello. $19 for a 1.75 liter bottle, tax included (20% plus $8 per bottle) make it cheaper than most of the ones you tried, and it's ok. Cheers!!

[@Schlipperschlopper]

Please test Vodka from Vietnam!!!

[@jeremy_h]

At my Total, the handle of Bartons is $8.99. Cheapest 1.75 of 80 proof anything in the store. Hard to beat that, especially as a mixer. I don't hate it straight, either.

[@mikelmart]

That's cheaper than paint thinner

[@chriscolley2229]

Ya'll are cute , fun , and entertaining . Thanks for all the hard work . Cheers !!!

Barton is the cheapest near me at $9.99 a handle. I'm glad to see it score as high as it did.

[@63Turtle63]

In Iowa, where I live, we have our own cheap AF vodka. Hawkeye Vodka. Every single one of these would absolutely destroy Hawkeye. It's 80 proof just like these, but with the harshness of Everclear and the taste of kerosene.

Hawkeye equaled dying from alcohol poisoning in a cornfield 😂

You can run popov thru a brita water filter 4 times & it becomes titos! I just drink burnetts now. Its cheap but decent & it gets the job done with little to no hangover.

[@andrewnatalizio6067]

Guessing Tower didn't make the cut on price, but it's like 40% cheaper than Tito's and more or less the exact same thing. Highly recommend to those who don't normally shop at TW but find themselves in one looking for a budget vodka.

I remember i went to america and one of the people swore on tito's But personally i feel since vodka comes from culture that treats it more casual i personally prefer cheap but good vodka But then again i drink to get drunk not for taste The blue one got me so drunk i risked getting arrested as they found me in a snowpile 5 blocks down the road bottle in hand I apolegize for disrespecting that law Note i come from denmark where public intoxication is very common But that still doesnt excuse it Luckily nobody saw me and i was told i was queiet so i hope the fact i didnt disturb none makes a bit up for it
