Hey Gary, I just can’t belive you tried polish vodka! Thanks for that!

QOTD: Actually it’s Zubrowka (the Bison Grass Vodka you just tried). If I drink vodka, I choose this one, but you’re right, it’s just too sweet to drink it straight. Try mixing it with apple juice and ice and you will get one of the most popular cocktail drinks in Poland.
Besides I live in a city, where the original Bison Grass Vodka is being produced exported from. It’s only about 30 miles from the only place, where you can see the european bisons in wilderness.
That’s why I treat this episode very personal. Thanks again.

QOTD: Not a vodka drinker, prefer bourbon or single malted scotches, well, now I have to take that back, nothing beats a glass of Johnny Walker Blue, neat, with a glass of water on the side. But I digress, vodka is a question at hand, not scotchâ€¦so, itâ€™s belvedere in vodkatiniâ€™s and whatever is least expensive in monkey boys.

Congrats on 400 Gary!

Congrats of the Giant win Mott!

YEAH KEEP GOING – 4000 MORE!!!!

QOTD: I get a bottle of cheap Smirnoff, grate some FRESH horseradish into it, add black pepper and a pinch of sugar. Let it sit for a week, and Viola – massive on it’s own, and even better in a bloody mary.

Congratulations on 400! Just read the Washington Post article. Must be cool to be mentioned as the most influential wine critic in the U.S. after Parker.

Congrats on 400 ep strong!!!! W000. Big shout out from up north!

Best vodka:
I wish I could remember what kind it was. My aunt brought it all the way back from the Ukrainian. The closest thing I’ve found since was Zodiac vodka.

yay 400 eps! can’t wait for the two year anniversary, whenever it is.

QOTD: I don’t drink that much vodka. I’m more of a bourbon person. Grey Goose is good but thats the standard. I’m a big fan of vanilla though so I’m gonna put my vote on Stoli Vanilla.

QOTD Don’t really drink vodka as I prefer brown spirits, but if I must have vodka, I prefer Tito’s Handmade

” â€œflavored vodkaâ€ aka gin, so I guess my favorite brand there would be Junipero, made by Anchor Distilling out in San Fran. My favorite brand that anyone has heard of?”

ANDY! I love Junipero too. the aromatics are off the charts!

Kettle One is the best I have tasted……but that’s not saying much because I can count on one hand how many times vodka, outside of a ceasar has touched my lips!

Bringing the Thunder: Well, I lead a couple of wine groups where I live and everyone that wants to learn more about wine, I steer to WLTV. I tell everyone that all I know about AlbariÃ±o I learned from Gary Vaynerchuk….;-)

What if I convinced a friend of mine to get a WLTV tattoo? That would be a never-ending way to support the show.

Thanks for all these shows. It’s such a great resource for me and my friends. Love the Grey goose and water. Drinks like water and hydrates at the same time. Lethal.

SPREADING THE THUNDER
1. I have emailed my friends who share the enjoyment of wine a link to the show and a short summary of my enthusiasm (addiction). Only about 20 people here, but they are all wine’os and a few serious ones.
2. I created a small tabletop card using the wine library tv logo with website on the Feed page and have put it on our bar at our wine bar. We have a self serve “enomatic” self-serve system with 80 wines dispensed and more by the glass and bottle. Fairly good customer counts. We seem to draw the type of people who would enjoy this show so it is a natural. This is tied into our fine dining restaurant.

Go to our website and click on “Directory” and then “AMUSE” wine bar to get an idea of what we do.

QOTD: Don’t drink Vodka much, but when I do we have a local one, “OCEAN” that is made on Maui. Haven’t tried it side by side so I am not sure how it compares. I do enjoy fine tequilas though and could easilly assist with a tequila tasting, and I have most in my home inventory (next to the two wine coolers).

Aloha and here’s to another 400

Congratulations

Congratulations on reaching 400 Gary and you dont look a day over 150 :p.
Long may Wine Library TV continue, i really didn’t drink that much wine if any before a friend put me onto your show, non pompus, non bullshit wih a modern twist. I will definitely be spreading the Thunder about the show.

Gary, get drunk on your own time please. I did order some M&M though. Im searching hard to really find any pinots that I like. Even had some of the Breggo you recommended. That had to be about my favorite so far and I appreciated it but for the money there are still other things I’d rather drink I think.

absolut, ketel 1, grey goose to make straight up Bunuelian martinis with a spritz of dry vermouth, a couple of drops of angostura or orange bitters and the vodka. And sometimes I go to the Associated and for the hell of it buy Acme herring in wine sauce in a jar and down some of that with warm shots of vodka. It’s not Russ and Daughters, but very satisfying nonetheless, especially on the occasional morning as an homage to my grandfather who used grain alcohol as aftershave and then would take a shot of it to brace himself against the day and the incessant pinching in his liver.

Congrats on the big 4 double 0 GV! Tito’s is a great vodka out there especially for the the price. I’d pit it against most super premiums out there.
Although I have no video blog for you to see, I hold weekly wine tastings and send out mass emails to all my customers at the wine shop I run where I spread the love of the Thunder Show every week. I will LINK IT UP on my weekly emails so people can see the wonders of the show as well. I am also enrolled in the ISG levels 1 and 2 and plan on getting my fellow classmates involed as well. Can’t wait for another 400 more. Salud!

Congradulations on reaching number 400, job well done! Thank you much for all you are doing for us out here in wine fan world. And big congrads to Mott on the Giants win.

QOTD: definitely not a fan of the Goose. I like Ketel One and like the basic Stoli. I like a little burn, with the smooth taste.

Spreading the Thunder. I have been and advocate of WLTV and have passed on to my family, friends and co-workers. I am part of dinner club group. We get togther every month or so. All are wine lovers and I have turned them all on to WLTV. Heck, I have even told my local wine merchants to look you up. Not sure if they like the competition as I have started buy direct from WL. Too bad for them. Competition is good for the consumer, right? Thanks G-man for all you and your team are doing.
