my first Belvedere experience
 

I always wanted to try that shit, but most of the time in the local shops I dont find it. Today in the tax free shop in the airport I saw it standing there for 30 euros so I couldnt resist. Just took my first sip and wow, its smooth.

if you are looking for a good vodka, I think you need this :pimp

can u really tell the difference in all honesty? Can your mouth differentiate between different BRANDS of vodka?

What's more expensive? This or Grey Goose?

Good to read this is about a brand of vodka instead of the TV Show

yeah, you can very easily ,


its like smoking , marlboro does not taste the same as lucky strike

Grey Goose is another one I still have to try

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Are u a sommelier?

i did about 15 shots of it last weekend & got into like 2 fights on a fishing peir

but yes its smooooooooth

i chase it with miller lite

It's good stuff indeed, a little pricey though :-/

no I am not ;)


but I am pretty sure you once in a while drink cola ?


do you taste a difference between pepsi and coca cola ?

I dont really taste a difference, but it wouldnt surprise me if there was a different taste. I know geographically they do taste different. I guess thats why they had that pepsi challenge?

If you lined up 5 vodka's for a taste, im sure finding the belvedere wont be that easy. Which was why i asked if u were a sommelier :)

and besides, unless ur drinking this shit straight, no one can tell the difference.

Level Vodka = Smoooooooooooove =)

lol first thing I thought about too

I am not mixing my vodka with anything right now ;)


just pure vodka

but I will be swithing to my 9 euro bottle of smirnoff soon to save my belvedere for "special" days

try some russian vodka if u want some good shit, stoli's are great.

i hear ketel one is good, but i havent tried it yet.

1. Grey Goose
2. Stoli (any flavor)
3. Belvedere
4. Ketel One
5. Armadale

That's how I rank them. Level Vodka is pretty good as is 3 Olives.

Grey Goose is the best by far, the citron version is pretty good too.

Vanilla Stoli with cream soda will get you in trouble if you don't watch how much you drink because it goes down like...we'll cream soda.

Belvedere or Grey Goose isn't practical if your just looking to mix drinks at home. I reserve my Grey Goose habit to buying $300 bottles when I want a table at a club. That's when it tastes really good. But what doesn't at 1300% markup.

I can't take straight vodka. I do that and no matter what else I drink I puke

Anyone else tried Ciroc? This is the stuff dreams are made of. Saw in a Duty Free store......and had to try it. Can't find it in any BC Liquor stores though.

I'm not a vodka fan but Rhum have very different tasting from a brand to another

I bought my first bottle of grey goose the other weekend and took a few shots.

It went down a whole lot smoother than the others. I usually buy stoli and thought it was a lot better, but stoli has more variety.

you can def tell the difference. the first time i drank it i got drunk out of my mind because it was so smooth and you dont realize how much you're drinking.

This is NOT bullshit:

Running cheap crap vodka over and over through a standard brita filter will take out enough of the crap that it turns into smooth drinking good shit.

i can taste the difference. but, of course, i am a vodka nerd. alot of it is in the density of the wodka too. some sore more syrupy when chilled etc etc. its like the difference between different types of beer. i can tell the difference between four different ales or stouts, or what have you.

bottom line is you can't go wrong with grey goose, belvedere, chopin, or even level for that matter. all very good vodkas.

i think its worth it to just spend the extra $10 and get good vodka.

Depends on if you think good vodka costs $18.00. They're using $8 garbage and people are comparing it to $50 bottles wherever I see this done. since its pretty funny and cool to do anyways its worth it anyhoo.

I just had a sudden memory of me and Tonda and lots of Belvedere!!! Mixed with orange crush!! hahahahaha!!!

i haven't experience that yet...!

u drink it straight?
