Today I plan to drink half a bottle Absolut Vodka.
Proud as I am it is a Swedish vodka.
So far I have taken 2/3 of half the bottle (375ml).
I feel rather good, as you can imagine.
Cheers or as we say in Swedish: Skål!

ps. I just enjoyed a smut of Amaretto with the coffee, or Disaronno as it's called nowadays.

In San Francisco we have a very inexpensive brand of vodka called SKYY . Their innovation is quadruple column distillation plus triple filtering. Which they apply to railroad carloads of industrial ethanol (!) shipped from Chicago to San Francisco by train. I recently bought a 1.75 liter bottle of their vodka for USD 17 at BevMo.
I actually prefer SKYY over Absolut. But Effen from the Netherlands is better than both, IMO.

Normally a whisky drinker but recently discovered the health benefits of cod liver on brown bread and Absolut vodka. Divine.
It aint much if it aint dutch 🙂 Anyone fond of Żołądkowa Gorzka? I like that one even though it is too sweet. It is probably heresy but a bit of this in tomato sauce for pasta is the finishing touch.

I can confirm SKYY is nice. But I prefer Russian Standard - nice Vodka also quadruple destilled.
Parliament is also not so bad. Milk filtered.
Grey Goose - well made from Grapes (afaik) but not worth the price IMHO.
In russia I got recommended Kremlin vodka - havent tasted it yet.
Black Square is nice too but havent seen it outside of russia even there it is not so easy to find.
Absolute is also not so much my taste.
..but however whatever floats your boat!
I have a spanish tempranillo now. Sk(a with that circle on top)ll

My God. A bottle in one day. I assume this is an April Fool’s day joke?
(Three or four scotch’s and I’m under the table 🙂 )
A red wine is c. 14% and vodka IIRC is 40% ( maybe higher?). So a bot of vodka is about 3 bottles of wine.
yeah but he is speaking of one 0.375L bottle. So half 0,75L std bottle. but you are right it has 40% alc. I thought of 36%.. a normal red wine (not talking about chateauneuf du pape wine with up to 17%) has around 13%-14% as estimated by you...it seems my wine is hitting me too 😀

We have a proverb: What is good for Russian, is death for German. I can finish half liter vodka in one night, with no problems afterwards. I like Swedka - healthy stuff!
