1. I'm still an Absolut drinker.
Just plain Absolut, not the citron or currant.

55. There is ABSOLUTELY no room for debate on that one, except by those
who haven't tried Tito's! Amazing stuff.

The only time I don't prefer Tito's is when I'm feeling raunchy and want a bitter aftertaste or that little shudder you get from the average stuff-- then I drink Taaka.

11. Grey Goose
French AND smooth. Most vodkas have a hint o' the lighter fluid. Never cared for the Russian stuff - they like it that way, lol.

12. Skyy
Stoli's gives me massive hangoverage. Absolut (frozen) is a close second for favorite.

18. gotta tip from TOTN
you buy cheap shit vodka, and buy straining it 4 or more times through a brita filter, you have premium vodka.

not that i know as i prefer whiskey or cognac(actually armagnac).

It's time I sent you another long-distance serenade.

Somewhere My Love
Somewhere, my love,
There will be songs to sing
Although the snow
Covers the hope of spring.

Somewhere a hill
Blossoms in green and gold
And there are dreams
All that your heart can hold.

Someday we'll meet again, my love.
Someday whenever the spring breaks through.

You'll come to me
Out of the long ago,
Warm as the wind,
Soft as the kiss of snow.

Till then, my sweet,
Think of me now and then.
God, speed my love
'Til you are mine again.

35. If you're gonna drink it straight up and chilled, go for the Grey Goose...
...or maybe Belvidere.

But either of them is wasted in a mixed drink, IMO

57. Its French, and its good.
I am on a France anti-boycott in my house; we consume as many things french as we can. I also served my family gathering on Thanksgiving, all 23 of them, an array of middle eastern cuisine, dishes such as would be found in, oh, Iraq. They loved it.

47. Whatever my uncle brings home..
.. since he does a lot of business in the CIS countries, he always brings a bottle of local vodka with him home.

Failing that, I'll take a bottle of Smirnoff, Absolut or Finlandia. I currently have one bottle on room temperature (the way it's meant to be drunk), one in the fridge & one in the freezer.
