Ron, I and a friend both agree with your observation that Fris in the new plastic bottle just doesn’t taste right. I’m still able to find the glass bottle in some of the stores near me, but in one case, I bought the last glass bottle they had. To make vodka, the potato or grain is heated to form a mash before being mixed with yeast to produce ethanol. This fermentation process can take anything from one day to two weeks before the liquid is purified to remove any odors or off-notes. Then, it’s distilled in column stills or pot stills to reach its desired purity. There are three types of vodka on the market, and the main difference between the three simply boils down to what’s been included during the infusion process or what’s been added after the distillation process. Plain vodka

I tied this stuff at your suggestion and I was blown away. I actually prefer it to the more premium stuff I’ve had. It burns for a second then that burn is replaced by a sort of happy warmth in my chest. This is the only vodka that’s ever done that for me. As a relatively straightforward spirit, vodka can be distilled from virtually anything. It’s mostly produced by fermenting potatoes or cereal grains like wheat or rye. The majority of plain vodkas—and almost all Russian vodkas—are created with wheat, while Polish vodka favors rye, and Finnish vodka goes for barley. When vodka is produced using something other than potato or cereal grain, like Ciroc, which is made using grapes, it must legally be declared on the bottle.Has anyone else noticed the taste change in the plastic bottle that isn’t in the glass bottle product??? Friz startled me at the initial gulp (i gulp, yes). I was surprised at the fact that it didn’t leave such a burning feeling in me like most vodkas do. I was overcome by joy when I took the next gulp and realized this was no mind game or grand illusion. I am in love. The only vodka I drink now and I never have to hear my friends talking about Circoc this, New Amsterdam that, Grey Goose blah blah. They all happily drink Friz and never heard one complaint about a hangover. Wish I could freeze distill my life lol. Old No. 21 is the Connecticut vodka that became one of the best-selling spirits in the world. The spirit is made from non-GMO corn, continuously distilled, and then charcoal filtered before getting cut down to 75 proof. Vodka has kept its title as one of the most popular spirits in the world for many years, which means there are hundreds of different brands to choose from. However, while there are more brands to sample than we could ever reasonably sip, there is a handful that is known for being consistently excellent.

Skyy vodka is one of the first vodkas made entirely with U.S-sourced grains and water. It’s a neutral-tasting bottle produced via four-column distillation with hints of flavor and little to no bitterness. I was reading all of the comments, hoping that I wasn’t crazy and that someone had the same thought as me. Although a lot of people agree that the plastic bottle has a strange taste, no one mentioned that it has a slight taste of tequila to it, as is the taste I am getting from it. It’s quite disappointing to me too. I thought it was in my head the first time I bought the bottle, but tonight, my thoughts about it were confirmed. I don’t think I will buy it again.

I have been enjoying the Fris Vodka for several months. I highly recommended it. But now I can’t endorse it in the new plastic bottle.

Neutral spirit: A term for a spirit that’s without distinctive character, aroma, taste, or color. While most vodkas might be regarded as neutral, they still aren’t technically neutral spirits. Svedka’s accessible price makes it an excellent brand of vodka to keep in the liquor cabinet at all times. Produced from winter wheat and distilled four times, it’s a column-distilled vodka with a peppery bite after an initial sweet note.The sky’s the limit when it comes to flavored vodka, a spirit that’s ever-growing in popularity as brands and distilleries discover new combinations and exciting flavor profiles. It’s possible to flavor vodka with almost anything, ranging from more traditional (artificial) fruits to unique and creative offerings like salted caramel, bacon, or chocolate. How to drink vodka While it might not be everyone’s first choice for a sipper, some of the best-tasting vodkas on the market are designed to be enjoyed in a cold glass with nothing more than an ice cube to bring out the varied flavor profiles. It is a shame since plastic is much more cost effective…from production to transportation, etc…however the taste is not tolerable so I will be changing brands again. Belvedere is the result of 600 years of Polish vodka-making tradition. The brand, owned by LVMH, is named after Belweder, the Polish presidential palace in Warsaw, and is produced in one of the world’s longest-continuously operating Polish distilleries. The vodka brand maintains strict production guidelines to keep its consistently premium taste, ensuring that each step of the process occurs on Polish soil, using locally-sourced raw ingredients. It’s also the only vodka brand to be awarded the Positive Luxury Butterfly Mark, which recognizes its commitment to quality craftsmanship and environmental responsibility. Absolut
