Unfortunately most vodka isn't made with potatoes. The ones that are
will brag about it on the label. Most vodka is made with wheat
grain. Additionally more Americans wouldn't be able to stomach
potato vodka since they normally buy vodka because they want alcoholic
water (40%/60%) and not flavor.

In searching for some statistics on how many potato based ones were
available in the US I found this great article:

Only one of the ten mentioned by name is made with potatoes.
