An Old Dog learns something new.
#22

Mike;
I have stocked Vodka, but of the real Russian and Polish varieties, like Stolichnaya, Wyborowa, Luksusowa, I never took Smirnoff seriously as a vodka since all the stuff says Hiram Seagrams and Sons on the label. In my mind any vodka sold in a plastic bottle is basically high grade rubbing alcohol. The reason I stocked vodka, or wodka as the Poles label it, is that when you look at cocktail recipes most involve, gin, vodka, or rum. Wyborowa is not that smooth as a sipping vodka, but since I used to drink screwdrivers it didn't matter. I couldn't stand rum so it was gin, vodka, rye, and Scottish whiskey, now I mainly drink cider is anything at all.
Regards
Arran
