Think less about the type and more about what you put in it.
The best vodka drink I have ever had was at a restaurant in Padua Italy: Dome Dove Doche. They put lime sherbet slurried in their vodka.
With Roman Catholic / Irish ancestors from Tipperary, my parents taught us well. “It’s 5 o’clock somewhere” comes to mind. And the all time favorite: “Alcohol kills brain cells, but only the weak ones!”
I’m getting smarter every day!
Not sure I could drink 16 vodka’s right now.
Maybe later this weekend, after my football teams disappoint me.
.
Sigh.
Ever since I got sick drinking screwdrivers as a teenager, I have barely been able to drink vodka. Just the smell of it brings back a visceral, bad memory for me.
I can almost still taste that orange juice, a unique taste in my mind as if the oranges that the juice came from were right on the cusp of going bad. It was the vodka mixed with the orange juice that changed its flavor in such a way that it twists it in my memory.
Argh. I used to drink pretty hard and pretty often! But I did have fun...:)
Heh, now? It is almost as if it takes too much energy to drink!
Beer and diluted wine (diluted with soda or tonic) is better.
I have a tough time with the smell of straight Tequila after my teenage years. But in adulthood, mixed into a well-concocted Margarita, I tip my glass again to Jimmy Buffett.
Everybody calls Tito’s, where’s Tito’s? 😀
Of course I do not drink it. Use it to make a nice cleaner.

My favorite didn’t make the list, haven’t been able to find in U.S. Starka, A Russian vodka I drank throughout Russia so smooth.
,,, ah, the tinkle of ice at sunset... burp!
Back in the mid 90’s we had a thing w/ Skyy Vodka and fresh squeezed Ruby Red’s.
I was in the golf biz and had members bringing us Publix bags of grapefruit and the obligatory Skyy or Absolut handle to go along with it. Those drinks would eff you up. I speak from experience.
Great times, but now I need an Omeprazole or some baking soda/water if I even look at the beloved fresh squeezed Greyhound.
Cheers!
“Sobieski” Rye vodka from Poland.
Best bang for buck.
Try it, I highly doubt you will regret it.
Absolut is also good stuff.
Grey Goose is overpriced well marketed garbage. It has a fanboy club of clueless people that buy it for the name and to show they can afford expensive bilge piss. It’s the H und K of vodka.
My late FIL drank Popov. When he passed, the family poured a shot for all those of legal age. It tasted like lighter fluid to me. I loved the man, but that was nasty.
Vodka ping!
