Smirnoff a premium vodka?

I once worked with Smirnoff vodka. It's not a top shelf vodka. But it's not vodka that you would find in the well or bottom shelf. It's a everyday vodka that's the top selling vodka in the world.

Smirnoff is owned by Diageo. Diageo has the money to spend and throw around. And I noticed that all the spirits that are used on the show are own by Diageo.

Just the concept of a vodka being "premium" is a little far fetched the only difference between makin ethanol and Vodka are the number of times you distill it and how you filter it

There is nothing cheap about stoli.
I mean nothing.



You don't know me.
You only think you do.

Stoli is not cheap. Stoli is what I drink at home. Smirnoff is what I load up on at the airport while waiting for flights. It's more than acceptable and doesn't break the bank.

Stoli is the only Vodka I will drink. “Stoli Martini with a twist, straight up, shaken.”

Why don't people realize that any and every brand that is featured in any reality show is the company that sponsors that show? That's the way it's always been and always will be

Taaka is still a common budget vodka haha.

I barely remember drinking Wolfschmidt Vodka when I was in high school. The plastic 1.75 liter bottle costed about ten bucks. Wolfschmidt was originally made in Latvia. And they should have kept it there. A lot of people think Eastern Europeans make the best vodka. Maybe, but I guess they also have their lesser brands.

I think someone else mentioned basically Vodka is Vodka is vodka and companies have done a great job in making Vodka, any Vodka a premium brand. They all taste the same, that is if you can taste it. Vodka is really so generic liquor stores use to put their store labels on it. Until somehow the companies that produce Vodka convinced young adults that certain Vodka's should cost more. Oh and that it should go into a Martini. Genius Advertisement. I remember Wolfshimdt, when I was a teenager (when it was legal to buy liquor at 18) and to tell you that truth I am not a Vodka drinker but you folks spending money for Grey Goose or Stoli are wasting it. It's the ethanol, the ethanol a potato and some flavoring to make it taste like something so you will even spend more money for it. lol

Its not "premium" the way you guys are thinking of it, its a popular drink with a high profit margin.
