    Good question, Cliffy.
    My wife likes gluten free stuff. I want extra gluten. ;)

    Purity is Swedish, I believe, and is organic certified and filtered a shitton of times. First had it out west, though, as it is served in restaurants there touring the organic piece. I looked it up when I saw it on a menu for martinis and was intrigued. It was a stirred martini and still was fucking nails. (I'm a shaken guy, like James Bond)
    Went and bought some and enjoy it.
    Recommended.

    Perfect martini to my taste. Hand is frozen from making. A key is the stainless steel martini "glass". Keeps that bastard ice cold.

    I could get down with one of those. Just one though. I can't do much more than one martini though.

    If I'm home I can drink three or four. If I'm out? One. They are a seriously slippery slope. That is a seven oz but most of my glasses are 9s it 10s. The vermouth is the smallest drop and shaking adds some water from the ice of course, but it's mostly vodka.
    Martinis are strong stuff.
    Think I'm going to try HesCalledDyer's Russian Standard recommendation with the next martini.

    I pound some manhattans, which is pretty much a glass of rye. As mentioned not s big vodka guy so get tired of martinis after the first. I do really enjoy one though and that one looks good

    A friend and her husband love Manhattan's so I know they are ass kickers as well. I drink vodka, tequila, and on occasion some rum. That's about it for liquor. (Burned myself out on everything else between 17 and 30.)

    The gluten craze is absolutely insane, but that's for another thread

    This thread? Back to Ketel (but the Russian Standard was good).

    Always bad idea of #4. Especially when it is a big boy glass.

    Ketel is not super high shelf
    I didn't try the Russian Standard yet but that was cheaper.
    Sky isn't bad. If you are mixing, sky and absolut are both solid choices.
    I know you a little though...Well enough to know you have great taste in food and drink. Spend the extra few bucks and go with the Ketel.

    I can see why you are so successful in sales. F Me. I bet that line - "I know you well enough to know you have great taste" - goes down a charm =)

    Ketel One it is.
    Sorry for loving and laughing at this.

    I may not be drinking vodka tonight, but I do raise my glass of X to those who are :)

    She needs to get her crushing self back down here soon, and we shall, along with my fellow LA woman.

    Skol!

    And ouch, RS. I hope it hurts less than it looks.

    Some of that cheap vodka, like Kamchatka, if you look on the label, is cut with some mystery liqueur. This stuff is nasty.
    The worst of times..they don't phase me,
    even if I look and act really crazy.
