Good vodka is double distilled....


Good vodka is distilled 3, 4 or even 6 times (an Austin original,
of course)

Titos Handmade Vodka

I suspect a very rapidly encroaching diminishing returns
two runs through a double reflux and charcoal makes a spirit with good
feel and taste with no point in fiddling further


Which is the one that brags that they *freeze* their vodka first, then
vacuum distill it? Is that Tito's? I have done vacuum distillations in
which the effluent was run through a dry ice or liquid nitrogen cold
trap, which effectively removes a lot of trace crap and lets the
desired effluent through, so long as the cold trap is kept above the
boiling point of the desired effluent....

I'm waiting for the other angle: wood aged Wodka.

With booze that has some color, I get it. With vodka, it's all the same to me. I just buy Luksosowa, because, in the place where I grew up, the Polish folks always insisted on Potato vodka. It isn't as expensive as most of thos perfume bottles, either. CP all the way, baby!!!
