I love it. Just sayin' Can anyone convince me that there is a better brand than Smirnoff? (The regular, 80 proof red, not the 100 proof blue, or fru-fru stuff.) And I'm not even talking better brand for the money, but certainly, this is an economical, but not "cheap" distillation. Oh, and I don't buy to impress with brands, or else I'd be having something like vodka distilled from bullrush, triple filtered through cowpies, before a quintuple charcoal filtration finishing rinse and bottled in a slightly ovoid tinted frosted vessel with a doiley about the neck.

I like Stoli better than Smirnoff, personally. But I have always been intrigued by Devil Springs Vodka. A store I worked at in collge sold it, but I was always too chicken to try. Why? 160-proof, that's why.

I haven't tried it yet, but it is made in my home state, and they've made some pretty good beer there, so if you're in Wisconsin or Minnesota see if you can try some of our spirits as well. More at http://www.45thparallelspirits.com/
