you can do what the fuck you like with vodka
Unless you're shelling out upwards of £25 a bottle it's just a method of putting alcohol into something without bothering with flavour.

That Vladvar stuff is quite good.
I don't really drink that much to tell you the truth.

vladivar is cheap crap. I'd rather have Smirnoff than that
I like a nice vodka, unfortunately they are hard to come by and are expensive when you do find one.

Absolut is marginally better
and Grey Goose is rather nice

I don't care for Absolut
the Stolichnya you get in supermarkets is probably the best of the cheap ones.

I tend to have vodka, lime and soda, which is quite nice even with a pretty cheap one.

I'm not a fan of whisky at all, although I can tolerate the peaty ones. I actually like the taste of vodka though, so will happily shell out for a bottle of 42 below or something.

Vodka is awesome.

The last bottle of Stolichnya
I got was alright. I'd never buy anything cheaper than that or Smirnoff (not exactly high standards.) Vodka, lime and soda is okay.

Whisky is lovely. I'd drink it as my drink of choice a lot of the time. Only single malt obviously

stoli from russia is much nicer
the blue and black smirnoffs are alright.

Not sure what I don't like about whisky. Not sure if it is the taste or not. I know it gives me indigestion, same as absinthe.

Had a Russian student
stay with us once who brought gifts of jars of black caviar, red caviar and the strongest and most expensive Russian vodka I have ever set my eyes upon.

Whisky is something that requires time occasionally. And a willingness to give different types a shot

oh man, I love caviar
and strong expensive russian vodka.

I will give it a go from time to time. I discovered last November that I don't mind Laphroaig, so I will continue my experiments in that region.

I love top-end spirits off all kinds
bar the Ouzo/Raki family which are unremittingly foul.

pernod only has one use
adding to snakebite black to make a black witch.

and I have grown out of that

Bleugh. My tastebuds and aniseed are sworn enemies.

I tasted ouzo for the first time in Kos.

Foul!

bad experience?
or just natural
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Mon 13 Sep 2010, 17:17, Reply)

Natural, unlikely as this sounds

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Mon 13 Sep 2010, 17:20, Reply)

not at all
same with me and the vile taste of cucumber

I like bisongrass vodka and fresh apple juice
because it tastes just like apple pies. Otherwise, I'm not really down with the vodka. I do appreciate a good one, but for the amount they cost I'd rather have a malt whisky. Or some tanqueray 10.

I've had vodka, apple juice and whipped cream
it really is surprisingly like an apple pie

So do I. I'm beginning to think YOU are me and not TGB.
Maybe I have multiple logins like Bert?

I would like to stress that is where the similarity ends.

Right.
So, you've definitely not fucked your sister, then?
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 13 Sep 2010, 17:13, Reply)

Almost definitely.
