Maybe this evening when the spousal unit gets back to town we'll have one. I also have a new bottle of High West Double Rye waiting to be tapped so......
Compared to whiskies, even the high end vodkas are dirt cheap. I can see the attraction purely from a bang-for-your-buck deal.
When I do try it, it'll be neat. The only way a liquor can be adequately assessed. I used to like gin and tonics but the horrifying amount of sugar in good tonic water has it crossed off my list forever.

How do you feel about WS's wine scores? Just curious. I find they're pretty good, especially James Laube. Interested in seeing what you think of the Tito's too...I haven't had it as I don't drink much of that sort of thing.
Over the weekend I ordered Ketel from a bar and it was definitely NOT Ketel. Stupid bars putting crap into different bottles to make money and most people are too drunk to realize it. They recently had a crackdown in Jersey with this and they found that a ton of bars were doing it, including a bunch of TGI Fridays. But I digress.
