Yes Ric I am setting here looking at a bottle over on the bar now....It has been quite a hit here in Tx. made right down the road in Austin Tx.....I really like it and havn't heard of anyone that doesn't...very reasonably price and now readily available....I switched from Kettle One to Tito's and have found it as good,smooth or better...would recommend without hesitation...CB

Yeh who would have thought that a quality vodka could come out of Austin...just a small operation there...I get mine at Costco here...less than $30 for the 1.75 liter....let me know if I can be of any help..I'm in San Antonio...Carl

Rick - Try Hanger One. One of the best I think. I'm looking forward to trying TITOs but it's not going to be here for a while yet. The liqour store said MAYBE next year :(

Phoneix, any chance of me sending you some $ and you packing and sending me a bottle to try? My wife loves Vodka (w/lemonade, w/cranberry juice, martinis).

I'll keep my eyes peeled for Titos. Never heard of it, but the wife and I are like to experiment with martinis.

Her favorite is Absolut Peppar (or any of the premium pepper vodkas) with a brush of vermouth (we always use Martini and Rossi (hence the name Martini). Garnish with some big Old Gilroy Garlic Co Jalapino stuffed olives. What a killer martini.

The best place I have ever seen to get just about anything brewed or fermented is the Cannery Wine Cellar and Gourmet Market near Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco. It's the only place I have ever found Aguardiente (a Columbian anisette liquer) outside of central/ south america.

I'll be there in a few weeks and will look for Tito's.

SKYY is great! I use to to drink Stoli regularly until I found SKYY. It's very cheap and excellent quality. Even though I just picked up a bottle of Stoli Gold last night..Mmmmmmm :)

Penguin13 --- have you tried Grey Goose yet?

It's the best Vodka out there (IMNO) ... and it is now the most requested ultra-premium Vodka in the United States ...

I like Grey Goose and always keep a bottle on hand. Every time we're in a bar and I hear some say "Can I get a Grey Goose with Lemonade" I just shake my head. Thats like ordering Jamesson with coke. You just don't mix the good stuff :)

I have a bottle of Skyy and a bottle of Grey Goose in the freezer. Those are my favorites right now.

I occasionally buy a brand called Stockholm...very smooth and good to pour for mixed company when you know a few martinis will be wasted.
