Luksasowa is legit, it tastes just a wee bit "different" from good quality grain vodka, not more bite per se, it feels a bit "thicker" going down. Its great vodka, just a bit different from Stoli, Grey Goose(great but way overpriced IMO), etc
@b69838323 жыл бұрын
There are two types of vodka in the market. First one is the neutral spirit with no taste, which is popular in markets where vodka is not traditional. Second one is traditional, which is preferred in places like Poland or Russia, where the taste of grain (or potato) should be there. An average US consumer would normally consider the traditional kind of vodka somewhat harsh in taste and smell.

I can’t stand vodka BUT most of my friends and my mother do enjoy it occasionally therefore I keep Grey Goose, Kettle One and flavored New Amsterdam on hand for them. Mom always liked Stoli when I was growing up and the very few sips of Vodka I’ve had I prefer GG or Tito’s. I actually don’t drink alcohol at all now (just a personal preference and value, not a religious or addiction related related decision) but appreciate videos about what others like!

Vodka is colorless, odorless, flavorless, neutral grain spirit. The only purpose is to enhance and not detract a mixer....As such anybody that pays more than the $10 Sobieski costs is either ignorant or showing off

I agree, Grey Goose definitely over priced. The Kirkland French version, does have a slightly different taste than Grey Goose, but is excellent in taste especially for the $20 price tag for a 1.75L bottle. I always drift back to Tito's which is awesome in every aspect.

I am a fan of Belvedere Vodka. It is a bit pricey, but it is the best all purpose vodka for Straight, or mixed in drinks like Martinis or Gibson's. Shouldn't be wasted on a Vodka & Grapefruit. Smirnoff is fine for that.

Don't knock the Kirkland Signature American vodka. The taste and quality are on par with Absolut, but at half the price. Here in western Washington, at the nearest booze emporium you can expect to pay $28 for a 1.75l bottle of Absolut, and that's before sales tax and state liquor tax, which run the price up to $43. The KS American is $22 for a 1.75l *AFTER* sales and state liquor taxes. That's a pretty screaming deal. FTR, I drink my vodka over rocks with either no mixer or a small squirt of Crystal Light or Mio if I'm craving a hint of sweetness.

I’ve never seen a top list as close to 100% as this. Just blew my mind. And all the comments seem to agree. Stoli is the educated drinkers cheap go-to. Titos is the Vodka for everything else. It’s the closest to tasteless as I’ve personally tried, and the dog thing is just the cherry on top. Used to be a fan of Kettle One but mostly for show (it’s still good, just tends to be boosted in price at bars).

@@dylynblue9864 You have excellent taste. I am Polish so a little biased.. Zubrowka (bison grass) vodka recently showed up in my part of the US. I missed it so much. It makes the best summer drink called "liquid apple pie" - just add some ice and good apple juice. It tastes exactly like apple pie with al the spice notes like cinnamon, cloves and that devine grass that last buffalos in europe feast on in north eastern Poland. One that starts with W is probably Wyborowa. It is also rye. Majority of Polish mass produced vodkas are actually rye or wheat. Notable exceptions are Chopin and Luksusowa which are potatoes. Potatoes were not the original base for vodka in Poland as it was invented way before Columbus discovered America and they became a popular crop in the old continent. They were used to make vodka much later out of scarcity and poverty. They were cheaper and more plentiful. Of course, anything made out of poverty can also become delicious. There is another non Polish vodka that I can highly recomment in the States - Reyka. It is from Iceland. Still, at about $20 I would buy Belvedere here. I agree, that list is useless.

Crystal Head is the smoothest vodka I've ever tried but too expensive for everyday use. In general if I'm having a mixed drink I'll use economy vodkas like Fleishmann's or Burnetts. If I'm making a vodka martini I'll use Ketel One, which is closely behind Crystal Head to my palate. And I agree about Grey Goose; beautiful bottle but harsh.
