In my early 20's while living with 2 good friends in a 3 bedroom house one of their parents owned we lived the typical college of drinking age lifestyle. We drank our beers, threw our house parties, and the like, but come Sunday we would always have a high end, high quality, and most often expensive new Brand/type of Vodka to start with. Of course we didn't keep it exclusively vodka all day nor did we finish with it because lets be honest here after the first bottle the taste isn't really all that big of an issue. This was such a tradition that we even had to resort to seeking out smaller, exotic style liquor stores and even ordering from international online vendors after having done it for nearly 3 years and the ability to find what fit the criteria became nearly impossible. The guidelines where pretty simple. The vodka must be able to be considered top shelf, must cost $30 or more for a 750ml bottle (this was to prevent any bullshit vodka such as those in plastic containers that are like nearly a gallon), and it can not, absolutely can not be of a brand and type of which we had already had in the past. To assure this wasn't violated we actually kept ever damn bottle from week one to the very last time on shelf in the den area. Not exactly sure why I felt like sharing this, but it seemed appropriate. And even after all the brands and flavors we tried we all seemed to agree that Grey Goose, Vox, and Absolute where definitely in the top 5, maybe top 10 of vodkas we had.

this story is complete bullcrap. how could you ever determine a top 5 from only trying something once? AND over the course of 3 years. every week you try a new vodka, but you only try it once, then after 3 years you say "oh here's our top five." LOL! you clown.

Selling at a loss will get you in hot water in some countries, as it decreases competition.

Some or better most of the other brands just buy neutral 95% spirit and add they own fancy extremly pure and best tasting water on earth and put them into they own bottles an marketing them as the best on earth. So Absolut is one of the better one in this category!
