CygnusX-1 Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 It says the leather clad bottle with studs is to link the drink with rock music and it turn make the coustomer feel like a rock star. I guess if your dumb enough to think a leather cover for a bottle makes you a rock star your dumb enough to drink vodka!:slappin:(and pay $50+ or whatever it goes for) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jburlowski Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Every time I go into a bar I continue to be amazed at the sheer number of vodkas stocked. Even the humblest bar or mass-market chain restaurant seems to have at least four or five brands; each in the growing multitude of "flavors"I know there are some "super tasters" out there that can tell the difference, but I'd wager that 98%+ of the public can't. Particularly since the bulk of it is drunk mixed with juice, soda, and god knows what else. I can tell the difference between a cheap, rot-gut, bottom shelf brand and a $15 bottle. But between that and a $30 / 50 /100 bottle? Give me a break.And the trend of every minor celebrity bringing out their own "label"? Just another sign of the decline of civilization.

Rughi Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 I found this line in the ad copy that struck my interest:...Introduced in 1879 as an absolutely pure vodka' date=' made from locally grown wheat and well-water from the town of Ahus in southern Sweden and using a new distilling process called rectification...[/quote']Late 1800s new process called rectification? What did that mean to them, a column still? It certainly wasn't adding prune juice.Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Rectification" at that time did generally mean redistillation or charcoal filitering or both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
