    I got a bottle of grey goose and a bottle of Asda supermarkets own bottom shelf molasses​ vodka(triple distilled). Price and Marketing aside,
    There is hardly any difference in perceivable quality of the actual drink inside the bottles. The moral of this story is, don't be fooled into buying expensive Vodka. Whisky on the other hand is a completely different story.

    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.

So Absolut is one of the better one in this category!
