cossack vodka cures radiation poisoning

stoli

>You must have a favorite vodka
No I don't I don't like vodka and never did

I drink to get drunk not enjoy myself so a $20 1.75L bottle of Skyy is good enough to mix with Kahlua.

>>14811936
this. ill always pick gin over vodka

>>14811923
Awesome, because it's a buyer's market in Fukushima

>>14811958
Based gin appreciator, gin over vodka anytime

>>14811958
Even without dressings? You'll sip gin as is?

>>14811975
I have drank some gin as is a couple of time if it's a good one it goes down nicely when you realize about it you are already drunk.

Sipping vodka is retarded, you're supposed to use it as base for cocktails, tinctures or drink in shots with good snacks, such as shashlik, pickles or salted herring.
For sipping you should buy some whiskey.
Still, i'll pick Beluga and Finlandia.

>>14811958
stoli is the best vodka
but gin, whiskey and tequila come before vodka
in that order

>>14811909
$20 handles of Svedka is the best bang for your buck, the quality increases above it are marginal and unnoticeable

If I want to feel Russian I get beluga

>>14812128
>tequila before vodka
>tequila before anything but hand sanitizer

>>14811909

Cтaндapд, Absolut for chugging and mixing, Пяaт Ocep, Пapлиaмeнт, Бaикaл, Зeлёнaя Mapкa, 白 for sipping.

> iTs all ThE sAmE

Pretty much. Still nice.

Khortytsa is a great low-budget option.

Boozers are loozers

>>14812177
agave tequila is god tier

>>14811909
I'm partial to Tito's

>Sobieski
>Soplica
>Zubrowka
Don't know which one, I don't drink them anymore.

>>14812235
As opposed to non-agave tequila?

Sobieski is cool and good

>>14812235
>drinking something made from mexican diabetes plant
Rum and Tequila are for HFCS-addicted retards

Absolut

Not really cause of its taste but because it is the cheapest brand that doesn't make me feel like total shit the next morning.

Tequila tastes like rotten vodka. You people are retarded.

Goose is the best, but I buy Smirnoff be it’s not expensive. Svedka is good too.

>>14811909
Is there vodka that actually tastes something and not just like pure alcohol out there?
Serious question, I had a couple ones and they were the same so I never bothered with it again.

>>14811975
no but i'll sip gin on rocks before i do the same with vodka. i hate vodka shots

>>14812281
ideally vodka is literally pure alcohol and water. bad vodka has more impurities

>>14812281

Nuances are practically homeopathic unless you get lamp-oil-tier crap, so don't sweat if you don't get it. It's more or less a contest to make nothingness with ethanol be as smooth and pleasant as possible. Kind of how quiet you can turn music to still enjoy it.

>>14812294
So it's basically for people who just want to get hammered without enjoying the process

>>14812317
truly a slav drink

This is the only vodka I like.

Putinka

>>14811909
>Tell me what vodkas are good enough to pour over ice and sip without fruit?

Luksusowa is a Polish potato vodka that has a “silky” feel to it, as opposed to the more sharper and medicinal taste/texture of most vodkas and is thus easier to drink straight.

But vodka isn’t a sip’n type of liquor, its either drunk as a shot or in a mixed drink.

>>14811909
Stolis is the best mixing vodka imo. It's not the smoothest, but has a nice taste to it. A lot of American vodkas in the same price category taste like straight up rubbing alcohol. Tito's is good if you want something more flavorful for martinis; its made with corn I believe.

Jewel of Russia, chilled, no ice.

>>14811975
I need the sauce on the semen demon

>>14811909
Skol 100 proof if i'm broke and SKYY vodka if i'm not broke, talk all the shit you want but Skyy tastes like nothing and is smooth which is the entire point of vodka. If i want something with flavor i'm going to buy knob creek 100 or El Dorado 12

>>14812250
>HFCS
rum is made from sugar cane not to mention all alcohol is made from sugar of some kind, Bourbon is made from corn however

>>14812266
try Hornitos, it's really good from the price. Only tequila i can stand

>>14812269
Smirnoff is garbage for the price, buy Skyy or Absolute it about the same price and much better

>>14811909
Titos

>>14812317
it's for mixing when you want to taste the mixer not the flavor of the alcohol

Stoli as a go to cheaper option. Suntory Haku if I want to treat myself. Can usually get it around around 40% more expensive than Stoli and it tastes incredibly clean and smooth. Perfect for lime and sodas.

>>14812463

I don't care what you think can be sipped and what can't. I sip my vodka at ambient and from fridge or freezer alike, both with savoury snacks and on its own, and I like it.

>>14812767
Ayy, a fellow 白 drinker.

>>14812244
This, and it's only $20 for a 1.75

>>14812807
If you're an ausfag as well buy some of those little cascade mixer cans. The dry ginger ale and lime and soda is ridiculously good. I dont know how they do it but it's better than any lime soda I've had at bars/restaurants/other soft drinks with not too much sugar.

>>14812905

Nope, roughly opposite of mudball from you. Nevertheless, thanks for the suggestion, always looking for flavourful and non-diabetes-inducing ingredients.

>>14811909
I can't find a better vodka desu. Titos fags need not apply.

>>14812807
i finally made it in a screen cap, but somehow it feels empty

>>14811909
for me it's smirnoff

>>14813070
>overpriced cornshit

>>14813094
>overpriced
if you can point me into anything else cheaper in b.c canada gougeland lemme know

So isn't vodka like sushi? Less it tastes like anything the better it is?

>>14811909
>pour over ice
Sip stoli neat and stop being a bitch

>>14813099
literally any other bottle on the shelf at the same price

>>14813197
exactly

>>14813099
Silent Sam, you dumb chink. Domestic brands are always cheaper, AND it's far better quality.

>>14813197
>>14813214
>vodka is supposed to be tasteless!
Found the retards.

>>14811975
Why does this guy have an ass on his chest?

>>14813217
dont get me started on food and housing prices mister

>>14813217
its the same price as smirnoff not cheaper

>>14813234
I live in North Van. Food prices are fine and nobody can buy houses anymore because all the big developers are buying up the land for condo developments

ITT: fags with no hair on their sack that can't tell the difference in taste of vodkas

>>14813249
It's a buck cheaper in every bottle size, and it's not cornshit.

>>14813219
What flavour are you looking at there then? All them praised Russian vodkas taste pretty much like nothing, only the mouth feel is different depending on temperature and so viscosity.

>>14813264
Now post the Smirnoff showing it's a dollar more expensive when it's not on sale.

>>14812177
stop drinking sauza or $10 bottles of tequila. That shit will strip the paint off a barn.

>>14812177
>he's never had good tequila lol

>>14812676
>Hornitos

It's fine, but El Jimador is better for the same price.

ok but a real russian invented smirnoff

>>14813269
Different water sources have different tastes, and vodka is 60% water with grain ethanol. In Russia, there's dozens of competing vodka brands.

>>14813295
Smirnov would be rolling in his grave if he knew what was being passed off as "vodka" in his name.

>>14811909
Gin

>>14813299
Sounds like they could use a... Water sommalier

>>14811919
fpbp

>>14811909
Comparing vodka is literally the same as comparing bottled water.

>>14811909
beluga but you have to drink it in one sitting cause it goes bad real quick

>>14811909
Green Mark run through a water filter.
>pour over ice
It doesn't work for whisky and it doesn't work for vodka. Put the whole bottle in the freezer and keep it there if you want it chilled.

>>14813390

>>14811975
Yes, otherwise you don't like gin.
Not that most well known gins aren't mixer tier garbage.

>>14812676
Try Casamigos white and black

Back when I was in alcoholic in the late 2000s, I would buy aristocat vodka because it was like $8 dollars for 1L. Then I would come home with a case, and I would dump all of it through a charcoal filter I made from a 5 gallon bucket and I would do that six or seven times until it got rid of the horrible taste. Essentially, after refilling back up the bottles and my friends would come over, you wouldn't be able to tell it was cheap bottom shelf. It would be similar to something in $20-$30 range. For me, it was the best vodka to drink straight out the bottle because I could chug it.

I literally just buy the cheapest brand that I don't detest. Seagram's is my go to choice, as a result.

>>14813219
United States regulations

Under the Code of Federal Regulations (27 CFR 5.22), which define the identity standards for various alcohols, vodka is in the class of neutral spirits and is defined as: "neutral spirits so distilled, or so treated after distillation with charcoal or other materials, as to be without distinctive character, aroma, taste, or color".[45]

Drink Zyr. It is the highest rated Russian Vodka in history, or so they say. Don't know where they get that claim from, but I will say it is a very good vodka, and it is actually from Russia like Russian Standard though not as well known.

Smirnoff out the bottle.

>>14811909
Titos

>>14813671
The US CFR also allows for cornshit to be sold as vodka. Retardation is still retardation even if it's codified by law.

>>14811919
I like this one too

Belvedere vodka I can drink right out of the bottle but then again I can drink even the cheap stuff straight but prefer to chase it with some beer.

This at the moment because it's $9 a handle and better than Taaka

>>14811925
>>14812128

Stoli is my default these days, Anons here are refined.

These russian / eastern bloc recommendations are priceless. Will definitely give beluga & Zyr a try

>>14812463
>Vodka isn't a sipping liquor
Is this a statement about class and etiquette? Or a matter of your own pallette? I wholly enjoy stoli on ice with a dash of bitters

>>14811919
based. this is the best vodka by far.

>>14814201
>I wholly enjoy stoli on ice with a dash of bitters
Isn't that the same as saying you don't like the taste of vodka but do like the taste of bitters?
You're absolutely not sipping on vodka, you're drinking a cocktail like he said.

>>14813287
>>14813442
i'll give them a try

>>14814396
Ape, the thread is for sharing vodkas that are tasty enough to stand alone. *the point* is to get away from the bitters

for me, its reyka

Stoli is my go to unless I wanna get a really cheap one. Recipe 21 isn't that bad and handles of it are like $12.

>>14812281
Beluga, or a very cold Russian Standard gold version which is a bit smoother than the normal Russian Standard, Beluga being higher quality (and higher in price) I can drink even at room temperature and still appreciate the taste whether the RS has a lighter profile but does get better when it’s cold imho (cold bottle, not adding ice), so far these are the ones that come to mind

I never see Wheatley posted on this board. I feel like I'm the only person in the world who drinks Wheatley.

>>14811909
Vodka, in my opinion, exists only for adding to Faygo.

cheap, doesn't taste like rubbing alcohol and made locally, so hey why not

>>14811995
Who gives a shit? She's a random twat in a bar who happens to have big tits. Look at the picture, move on.

>>14812242
The average knuckle dragger thinks Cuervo is tequila

beluga 35€, russian standard 13€, grasovka 15€, finlandia 12.50€.
stoli is low tier

>>14815055
It's Latvian pisswater, but goddamn it's a contender at its pricepoint.

Pineapple flavored vodka

>>14811975
Heaven Hill's. (It's sweetened though, and keto is really beneficial.)

I switched to Everclear.

>>14811958
based and drunk on gin
no srsly good stuff good by everyone im going under

>>14811909
All vodka tastes like shit. The end.

all vodka is the same to me. I don't understand how people have preferences.

>>14811909
When I used to drink more vodka my go to choice was Moskovskaya, though the best widely available one in my country would be Grey Goose. That shit tastes like heaven.

Chopin is really good

>>14811919
Stoli > Russian Standard.

Stoli is the best.

>>14814396
I drink all my vodka neat
Mixers will give you headaches

>>14815361
Tastelet
If you've ever had shit tier bottom shelf vodka you'd know how bad things can get
You ever get cottonmouth from vodka? I dont even know how the fuck that was possible

>>14815822
>Mixers will give you headaches
true sugars can give you a hangover but they also help the alcohol kick in faster and give you a brighter buzz. I sometimes use unsweetened green tea to take the bite off and give it some flavor plus the extra hydration doesn't hurt

>>14812518
>he cant reverse image search

>>14815848
>I sometimes use unsweetened green tea to take the bite off
That actually sounds kinda interesting

anybody tried nerpa?

>>14811919
>volcano diamonds
aren't all diamonds essentially formed in volcanoes?

also
>my alcohol is better than your alcohol
is meme tier in itself
