I'm calling on your : Drinking good vodka requires no effort (that's what often makes it good).

What takes effort is when you're at an after-hours party, the real mixers are gone, and you're left facing some D-bag who bogarts the last of the Stoli, leaving you with an unopened bottle of Wolfschmidt and a bag of Tang mix.

If you can get the Wolfshit down, and keep it down. . . you need never prove yourself again.

i've been in the same situation ,but it wasn't the wolfshit you're talking about and it wasn't tang
it was a bottle of crystal palace gin(which taste like kerosene) and some cheap cola someone got at a dollar store ,needless to say i took a sip, gagged, and burped
a few minutes later i leaned over to tie my shoe and i never hit the brakes, and pulled a nice faceplant

wow iv never even heard of it. guess ill give it a try.

i like sky. oregon springs is good for cheap stuff too (its around 18-20 for a 5th)
Skyy is the perfect mixing vodka. There is almost zero flavor, and it has less hangover impact than nearly any other vodka. It goes with any kind of mixed Vodka drink.

I'm just surprised Tito's seems to have an enjoyable taste while still avoiding any of the burn assoicated with all but high-end vodkas.

At any rate, I at least have a second option now when I don't want to dish the $60 for Elit on the weekends.

Skyy is actually an average vodka and not that good. I'll agree it is better for mixing than some of the cheap stuff, but skyy has an after taste.

Vodka has flavor?
.... It just tastes like burning... and puke.

Or, wait... is it my puke that always tastes like vodka? Either way, I have never really wanted to "savor the flavor" of vodka. Even when I drink martinis I enjoy the traditional gin variety. Bombay Sapphire FTW.

Now a good microbrew is a different story. Bottoms up!

This is the second time Ive heard good things about Tito's, Right now my fav vodka is Belvedere, and yes Grey Goose is highly overrated, that stuff is terrible tasting to me. So ya I enjoy a good smooth tequila as well as vodka so I'll give it a try..I also want to give this one a try..

oh yea vodka is defined as a neutral spirit "without distinctive character, aroma, taste or color." so basically the high end vodkas just shoot for smoothness. Never expect a vodka to add much to the taste dept.

Belvedere or Chopin on the rocks for me.

I put out Absolut or Stoli for those who want to mix. Seems a waste to mix ultra-expensive vodkas.
