I won't start the "you can't make a martini with vodka" thing, but when
drunk like that, the good stuff does come out way ahead. No bite, just
smoother. It is the Bloody Mary type drinks that the good stuff is lost. The
same can be said for most other forms of liquor. Longer aging and better
filtration makes it more enjoyable to sip.
