Vodka is vodka, drown it in Red Bull and have at it. Three Olive Grape is my go to. But I don’t really drink much anymore. Tired of two day hangovers.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Vodka comes from potatoes, not grain. Friends don't let friends drink titos. Blue Ice Chopin Luksusowa Those are my go-to vodkas. No Blue Ice in PA. Chopin is twice the price of Tito's. But Luksusowa is $10 cheaper for a handle so we may have a winner. I'll buy that next time. Thanks!! |

I tried it & found it very ethanol-forward vs Stole, Grey Goose & Belvedere.
Maybe it wasn’t cold enough? My wife noted it as well. I’ll drink it if it’s being served, but stick with the other 3 if I have a choice & am paying at a bar or restaurant. Chopin potato vodka is good, too. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Vodka comes from potatoes, not grain. Friends don't let friends drink titos. Blue Ice Chopin Luksusowa Those are my go-to vodkas. Same here, Blue Ice and Luksusowa are my two preferred (really enjoying Blue Ice recently). Grain vodka is only good for mixed drinks to hide the grain-flavored shit vodka. Titos is like Walmart clothing brands at Gucci prices...it's not a good value for grain vodka. ROCK6 |

As mentioned, it's grain neutral spirit from ADM or MGP that they minimally process and water down (I guess so they don't feel bad about calling it "craft" or "small batch" or whatever). They don't even need to. They've been sued multiple times for fraudulent marketing and the courts have already said those terms don't mean anything. Their distillery isn't locked down for any government reason. They don't give tours because they're basically an automatic bottling plant, not a distillery. For what it's worth nearly all American vodka is exactly the same. |

Titos is shit. Their annoying marketing gimmicks are enough to lose my business.
How is mass produced alcohol handmade? Also, any liquor that prints gluten free on the label is probably owned by faggots. That's like bragging that your liquor has alcohol in it. |

The folks saying Luksusowa are right. Tito's is fine, Stolichnaya is better, and now, thanks to the Ukraine conflict, is super cheap.
The Stoli we get in the states is actually Latvian, not Russian. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: It appears Blue Ice has potatoes enter their plant and vodka leaving. Check out the video on their website. https://www.blueicevodka.com/ That's why I said nearly all. Smirnoff and other "major" vodka producers (like Tito's) in the United States do it the fast, cheap, and easy way. I don't really drink vodka, but if I did, it would be this one. My mom drinks it and I keep it on hand for her when she visits, so I'll go with a real vodka like that next time. Though as a Pole I am partial to Polish vodka on the rare occasions I do drink it. |

I liked it when it was new (I'm in Austin) and went for slightly over the cheap stuff but significantly less than most premium. I don't drink as much vodka (or anything) so right now I have some Tito's, K1, and Deep Eddy (flavored varieties). I think money is better spent upgrading other liquors so skyy, svedka price range is fine.

This, and Sobieski were my go to's back in my drinking days. Quite a while ago, I think someone posted here that Tito's is just brought in by rail tanker cars and bottled without any of that "handcrafted" marketing bullshit. Can't understand someone paying top dollar for a product that isn't supposed to have any taste. |

I got this years ago from an internet company that would ship booze to Alabama (no matter what the law!
 ). Made from rye. Darn good.Until 2009, Wyborowa was presented in 29 international competitions bringing - together with Wyborowa Exquisite (formerly Single Estate) in the Super Premium category - 29 medals including 22 gold. In addition, Wódka Wyborowa received the International High Quality Trophy at Monde Selection's World Quality Selections in 2012.  Attached File |

I don't think it's very good but tbh with enough mixer, any vodka is fine.
Tito's gets a lot of love because Texas, but I think Luksusowa is better. Hell for an American grain vodka, drink Wheatley. Buffalo Trace makes it, it's about the same price as Tito's and tastes better to me. |
