That's some strong shit. And under 20 bucks too. Wafted it and it smells like rubbing alcohol.

Jesus Christ, 151.

Ya, go lightly.
That will fuck up your system.

Not just because of the Proof.
But because I guarantee it has all this shit that is supposed to be distilled off.

Oh lawd

Big Machine makes some decent vodka and they are Nashville based. They have a cafe that makes fucking amazing bloody maries

There's a local distillery here in town that makes some vodka that is supposed to be decent. I haven't had any before since my go-to is Tito's.

You can do better than Tito's. That is all marketing.
Tito's has additives and isn't distilled all that way.
Look for an alternative.

If you have Platnum in your area, that is the way to go.

Looks low-quality like the kind of stuff I used to buy and binge-drink with until I reached oblivion. That's the stuff. Enjoy.

oh god, I cant even sniff Platinum anymore without dry heaving

why would anyone need 151 proof vodka?

what is that like 75% alcohol? Might as well drinking rubbing alcohol at that point

I mix it with Mountain Dew flavors, it just doesn't give me hangovers like cheap shit and I'm not going to pay for Kettle One or Greygoose to have a Baja Blast of a good time!

There's no reason not to buy domestic vodka. It's no worse than anything imported, and I trust ATF and FDA over the equivalent bodies (if any) in other countries.

Huh. I never really think about alcohol safety since it's basically watered down poison anyway, ha. You right, though.

Vodka is the least complicated Alcohol there is.
It's just Ethyonal and Water.

It's a basic spirit.
The only difference is how distilled it is, or if there are things added.

Don't overthink Vodka.
Avoid name brands on Vodka, it is all marketing.

Find a quality lesser known.
Or, as it can be said, If you've seen an advertisement for it, skip it.

Boil apple cider, apple juice, sugar, with cloves (put the cloves in cheesecloth to make them easier to remove) and a cinnamon stick or two in it until it thickens to an almost syrup like consistency. Let that mixture cool and remove cloves and cinnamon sticks. Once cooled, pour that mixture into a gallon container and add the 151 vodka. Stir that up and let sit for a day or two. Then, you'll get fucked up without having to taste the vodka.
