It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

Christiania vodka is the best IMHO.  definitely worth a try.



It's a 6 times distilled potato vodka from sweeden.


Thors Hammer vodka was the smoothest I have ever tasted, but I don't think they make it anymore.


Really, the only time you need a super gourmet vodka is when drinking martini's.  Other than that, Skyy, Absolut, Ketel One, or Stoli is more than good enough.  It's funny when people order a tall greyhound or seabreeze, then comment,  

   "ahhhh  that's good vodka."

Once you mix it with anything, it doesn't matter.  Yes it may be worth it to drink very good vodka while mixing if it does not give you a hangover because it has less impurities.  But don't mix vodka because of the taste.

Heck, even a Martini is 1/3 water.  Once you get done shaking it it's pretty diluted by that point.

I went to a bar in San Francisco where they porured the vodka from the bottle straight from the deep freeze, with a big chunk of ice around the bottle.  Still very cold, but pure vodka, no dillution.  I could definitely tell the difference.

Ummmm....no its not. Beer is made from a mash involving malted barley. Nothing rotten in it at all. The closest you get to rotten stuff in beer is the bacteria cultures used to make Lambic ales.


It's just as correct to say beer is rotten grain as to say wine is rotten grapes.

Try educating yourself next time before you open your mouth.


As if I wouldn't know how beer is produced dolt.

neither beer nor wine is rotten


both simply fermented

one from grain, one from grapes.

In its strictest sense fermentation (scientifically called zymosis) is the energy-yielding anaerobic metabolic breakdown of a nutrient molecule, such as glucose, without net oxidation. Fermentation yields lactate, acetic acid, ethanol, or some other simple product.
'Metabolic breakdown' == rot.

they are breaking down the starches into simple sugars,  glucose, fructose..................... .....that the yeast can eat.  Yeast is a living organism.  the byproducts of a yeast eating a sugar is alcohol and CO2.   There is breakdown,  but nothing "rotten"

Usually when people say that it’s “good”, they mean it was expensive. IMHO if it’s not made in Russia, then it sucks. I have yet to find good Vodka made in USA. I my self like St Petersburg vodka, it’s slightly sweetened, goes down easy and taste good.

Would be great for nightclubs to get glowing customers as part of the entertainment. The customers could power the soundsystem and lighting for a rebate on drinks. Sockets in the bar for plugging them in.
