Plenty of other great Vodkas to try.

Here are a few, but if you want a smaller list . Some of them are not that great, and I recommend staying away from the flavored ones, but than again others are that great.

Chopin is my favorite, but then again Skyy is pretty smooth for the price (Costco). Stoli is good, don't get me wrong, just letting you know there are plenty more out there

I purchase as a gift to my senior assistant a bottle of epicurean vodka on her birthday.

I am thinking of this one for this year. Anyone here ever sample it?

I drink all my shots with 1 rock or straight room temp, depending on what it is. Vodka though is good with olives and strained and stirred not shaken.

Depends what mood I'm in. Good quality vodka still tastes fine at room temp, you shouldn't HAVE to freeze it to down it.

chilled over ice with the tiniest of drops of dry vermouth and nice olive, poured into a chilled martini glass.

but that's only if I don't have any gin, which I don't so I think I'll have a vodka.....

Mad_Haggis · Post by **Mad_Haggis** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 10:04 pm

I still like vodka and crandberry.

In my may days, used to drink it straight, no ice, room temperature, Um...Ummm...

Grey Goose is over-rated in my opinion.

DePlano, a buddy, and I did a blind taste test with it, Skyy, Chopin, and Stoli.
Grey Goose came in last each time with all 3 of us.

But hey, still better than most stuff out there

wee96 · Post by **wee96** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 11:01 pm

Ever have Popov? Ughh that stuff is horrible haha.

Skye is OK, but my faves are Ketel One and Chopin.

room temp.

Goldschlager, Jagermeister and Rumplemintz are the only ones that go in the freezer.
