I'll bring the Jaeger and we can make Dead Nazis.

I think this meme's about had the lick.

Rum: Appleton Reserve, Mount Gay (especially if you can get some that is actually bottled in Barbados), and I agree on the Sailor Jerry.

Gin: I know Tonker likes Plymouth as do I but I prefer Tanqueray (the regular London Dry not Tanqueray 10). Bombay tastes like soap.

Tequila: Herradura Blanco. Hmmm... agave.

Vodka: Sorry SKO but you haven't lived until you've had a perfectly made Grey Goose martini. Up with just the thinnest layer of ice and blue cheese stuffed olives.

Whiskey: Can't... do... it. It doesn't matter what kind, all of it brings me back to puking into an evergreen hedge in 1977.

I can't do Tanqueray. Too sweet to me. I'd rather go Beefeater and tonic. I like Bombay, but only in a well-made Gibson martini.

Or we should start talking about acid again.

Not while I'm at work.

Every day I think gord I'm not monitored here.

I agree with Beefeater over Tanqueray. And I suppose I should say that I don't mind vodka in a well-made martini. The important thing to remember is that I'm in college, and thus most of the vodka I'm exposed to is Smirnoff or worse. Also, I curse the invention of "Jungle Juice."

I've never considered myself an alcoholic, but this thread is making me want a Manhattan at 10am...

Rarely, when I get the chance to have a dinner at a nice steak house (LIKE OUTBACK), I'll almost always order a Goose on the rocks with handstuffed blue cheese olives. However, people love to tell me that Grey Goose is not even remotely considered good vodka among the experts and that I should be drinking Belvidere or what not.

Can anyone give me the lowdown on the best sipping vodka that you're likely to find at your nicer establishments (LIKE CHILI'S)?

On the shelf in my kitchen, I keep a bottle of Smirnoff Vodka (for everyday basic mixing and such) and a bottle of Belvedere.  I have the half bottle of Johnny Walker Blue left, sitting right next to the aforementioned Woodford Reserve.  A bottle of Kahlua, because I'm on a White Russian kick of late.  A bottle of Firefly.  Some overproof Jamaican rum and a bottle of Ouzo.

White Russian for lunch it is.

I'm not a fan of standard vodka, but Firefly is excellent.

Belvedere is the best vodka, hands down.  I keep a bottle at home.

Go Poland.

I don't know what the best vodka is, but I have experience with the worst:

I'm waiting for this thread to descend into what is our favorite bum wine.  I'm a fan of Mad Dog 20/20 myself, though I have been known to hit Wild Irish Rose in a pinch.

This was all in those halcyon days when I was in school and supported myself with the Zamboni money.
