All other alcohols are not welcome.
Discuss and argue over which vodka is the best, out of three catagories: affordable, expensive, and luxury.

In my opinion, Stoli is the best out of the affordable vodkas, and smirnoff is about the absolut worst. Change my mind friends.

also post cheap vodkas which aren't pus, as if there was a cheaper vodka than stoli at the same price, that would be great. $43 is the cheapest off the shelf I can find it locally.

A little reminder that Kaliskaya is the original anti-islam vodka because the logo depicts "the word Allah in Arabic script that is being devoured by a snake", according to some muslims who recently threatened to smash up a supermarket in Austria over that issue.

dont worry, i wasnt suggesting anyone buy expensive "high quality" vodka. there is a clear difference between them yes, being distilled how many times, ad the ingredient used. but if you know drink a wide assortment of vodka you pick up on the subtleties of each one. i never and will never buy anything that cost more than 20 dollars when it comes to vodka. legit. midgrade is the best, but bottom shelf gets you just as drunk. im about to pick up a handle of nikolai in a little bit. it really is all the same, but between nikolai and luksusowa id be hard pressed not to taste the difference.

Congratulations, you win dumbest post of the week. Sometimes I'll wake up in the middle of the night and randomly grab one of the various handles from under my bed and fill my mug halfway up, and I ALWAYS know the difference between the cheap shit and the 2 or 3 mid-tier ones. The cheap shit is completely different, and only there to drink when already drunk, or desperate.

I have tasted no better vodka.

I was offered a taste at a duty free and bought a bottle there and then. It's not easy to come by but it punches well above its price point.

it is. In my supermarket it's placed rather low.
Thus, it is bottom shelf, with a crappy taste to boot. How can you fuck up vodka that hard? It's supposed to be simple. If I wanna get me some "big brand" everyone can recognize, I'll get Absolut. Same price, but much better taste and nicer bottles too.
But the best vodkas is premium russian stuff not meant for export. If it's labelled only in Kyrillic and looks fancy, it's probably gonna be good.

Whoa, i meant Projecting. but still, it seems you're protecting your personal beliefs from being challenged because you think what you drink has anything to do with how much money you have and not how smart of an alcoholic you are, or even being smart enough to know that brand name has nothing to do with quality, and that mid grade vodka is "better" than 34 times distilled vodka because in all reality vodka has a quality cap, and anything over mid grade price tags is overpriced brand names. so since you think its all about what money you have relating to what you drink, bear in mind i just took a shot of nikolai 50% abv, and it literally gets me drunker than smirnoff. so smirnoff and suck my dick.
