Ciroc Vodka

If you watch ESPN you are deluged with Ciroc Vodka ads. They are using a would-be latter day Rat Pack to pitch the brand, fronted by P Diddy. Not only is the vodka made from grapes in France but comparing P Diddy with Frank Sinatra or Frank Vincent with Dean martin is ridiculous.

P Diddy drinks Ciroc Appletinis. The Chairman of the Board drank Ketel One. Neat.

Give me the Goose.  Ciroc and Kettle One are both great, but I've always been faithful to the Goose.  Have a bottle of 42 Below at home that has yet to be opened, perhaps this weekend.

I just know it is made down under, New Zealand I think.  I don't believe it is any stronger.  I'm a bloody mary person in the morning on the weekends, so I'll have to give it a whirl.

GGGG

If you ever get a chance do yourself a favor and try Hendrick's. As elegant as the rustle of silk.

My skin is crawling.


I believe that people react to certain spirits dependent on how badly they had a hangover experience (or three) with said spirit.  Gin and Tequilla I no longer touch.  The smell of either puts me in the memory machine where I don't want to go back to.

Vodka is my fav for the weekends. If i drink it on weeknights it's mostly with Mountain Dew. Weekends it's perfect with salads

You realize, of course, that Grey Goose is French??

I have never been a Goose fan.   The bottle costs more to produce than the liquid.  And I just made that up, so don't be fact checking on me. 

Absolute/Skyy just fine for me.

ZFB swore off gin after he got so drunk him and his boy Randy started making out. Strictly Keystone for homeboy nowadays.

Depends on the situation, but I agree.

A) Meal out at good restaurant - Beefeater martini, up, 2 olives
B) Casual night out/dinner at a fiends house/shaking dice after tennis, etc.  - Absolute, rocks, twist
C) home on a weeknight (like right now) - Absolut/Skyy on the rocks
D) Saturday night, dinner at home with nowhere to go - See A x 2

The problem with Grey Goose is that it is a tribute to aspirational marketing - a ploy the makers of Ciroc are mimicking through a cynical rip-off of the Rat Pack . Grey Goose was invented not that long ago in order to convert from cognac making.

Ketel, Absolut, and Rodnik have been around a long time and will still be there long after P Diddy goes to that great gay bar in the Skyy.

We had several ethnic Russian pilots from the Ukrainian Air Force assigned to the III Corps Close Air Support team in Iraq back in '07 and they swore by Rodnik. I had to wait until I got back to CONUS to give it a go but it is a great vodka. Do give it a try if you like vodka. It works well with a twist or as an extra dry Gibson up.
