My guests don’t realize that my MD 20/20 bottles actually contain the cheaper Wild Irish Rose, I have been getting away with it for years.

I was working a job that required me to visit a spirits bottling plant. They had a 10,000 gallon container of vodka. The same vodka was then bottled under at least ten different labels (as well as bottle sizes/shapes and makes - glass or plastic), all with a different price point and destined for different markets around the area.

A Smirnoff Vice president said something similar in the 1960s or early 70s.

There is a grain processing plant in Muscatine, Iowa that bottled at least a dozen different brands of vodka, all from the same vat.
