Favorite vodka is Reyka, from Iceland. Filtered through volcanic rocks, possibly the ones that wrecked airplane travel months back. Very clean, great packaging, little booklet. If I can't find that, there's some beautiful plastic jugged varieties out of the Irvington region of Jersey.

    Congrats on hitting the 400 mark!!! Woot!!! First NY Giants and now this hahaha Good Times!

    QOTD: Besides wine I do like Martini’s and was in a Martini Club for awhile (more good times 🙂 Would love to try the Herb’s Dill for a dirty martini but for now it’s Stolichnaya.

    Too many wines to try to even think hard liquor.

    I’ve not really had vodka before. I’ve had a few different kinds of whiskey, though. My favourite whiskey is Forty Creek. Great stuff.

  • It sounds like maybe there was a Giants celebration party going on at Club WL, perhaps ? 🙂
    Congrats on the first 400 episodes of WLTV, GV, you are awesome !
    I’m definitely going to the Boston Wine Expo (both days because I’m VOLUNTEERING on Sunday)… dunno about the dinner yet.

    QOTD: I don’t really have a favorite vodka… I’m strictly a Wino these days. A few years back, in homage to my Scottish roots, I had a sampling of single-malt Scotch whiskeys at the Scottish Lion Inn in NH. Damn smooth and fine they were. And yes, *warming*. Recently on a lark I bought some Fernet Branca (Italian digestif) after reading the hilarious “Clash of the Tightest” on moderndrunkardmagazine.com. I haven’t opened it yet – I’m not an actual drunkard maybe, heh heh.

    Not much of a vodka fan. Occasionally I’ll have a screwdriver at a tailgate, but it doesn’t really matter to me what kind of vodka you mix with OJ. I did taste some interesting looking vodka a few months ago and I found myself smelling it and then spreading it around my pallet and analyzing the flavor…something I never would have done prior to getting into wine.

    First off, congrats on 400 episodes! That is incredible! Second, congrats to the Giants. Gary, it pains me to say that as an Eagles fan, but I am truly tired of the Pats.

    QOTD: I have to admit that I have not really had too much hard alcohol lately (though vodka is my favorite liquor). I have really moved to wine and beer. However, as far as vodkas go, I have been partial to Finlandia and Grey Goose (the G squared?).

    My only rule for vodka: if it comes in a plastic bottle, STAY AWAY! Other than that, bring it on!

  • Congrats GV…400 on the 4th of Feb.
    That had to be the best Super Bowl I’ve ever seen….Cheaters never win!

    I love vodka and Stoli will always have a special place in my heart! Not as good but still very solid for the price is Svedka. Cheers on 400!

    My son & I loved an NFC East Team brining the THUNDER to the Patriots; remember it was another NFC East team(EAGLES) that showed the Giants the way!!

    Favorite Vodka: Charbay Meyer Lemon (Domestic; West Coast)

  • GV – Dude, you could have a show where you talk about fingernail clippers or ice cube trays. YOU ROCK!

    When you’re talking about relaxing after a day of work, that’s me.

    Spreading the thunder? I’ve really made a pest of myself telling everyone I know about it. Even people who don’t care for wine.

    QOTD: I don’t really do the Vodka thing. Too harsh for me. I like Scotch.

  • Congrats on the big 4-Oh-OH! I’ve been steering clear of vodka lately, but I do make the odd martini at home now and again. I like Ketel One for that.

    Keep up the great work! Can you do Tequila Library TV at episode 500? Or would you wake up in Tijuana if you tried that? 🙂

    Congrats again!

  • FifthgenTexan

    Congrats on the BIG Four Double O!!

    Tito’s Vodka – hard to find, very smooth, Great QPR. No doubt, THE best Vodka out there. Small and indepenent distiller.

    400! Amazing! I’m fairly sure most viewers can’t express what you do for us, either, Gary.

    QOTD: Vodka, my other liquor passion. I believe Chopin makes the best sub-$50 vodka. Level comes in a close second. I am only talking about widely-available vodkas here.

    If you love that harsh-but-smooth (paradoxical, no? It’s why I love vodka!) characteristic , you need to go for Russian vodkas like Stoli Gold or Stoli Elit. Imperia makes a decent Russian vodka, too.

    QOTD:

    I rarely drink vodka straight these days.
    But i did actually have some Bison Grass Vodka on the weekend.
    My friend was adding it to his beer, which was actually quite nice, so i tried some straight.
    Other than that, i’m too poor to buy anything but cheap vodka to get drunk with, it’s not something i tend to buy for taste, i have wine for that.

  • congrats, bro. good job on making it through your personal devastation from the Bowl of Supers. (Now *that’s* a contest I’d like to see–grizzled building supervisors around NYC going at it for big prize money! Or not…). QOTD: Not a big fan of wodka, but Ciroc (French) is interesting. Also, Vermont Gold, *maple* flavored vodka is kinda fun (sounds odd, but it works for some reason). Too old to do the hard stuff anymore, and yeah, too many wines to try! If I’m going to drown my sorrows, I’m going to do it with a Larkmead or a Black Bart Syrah. I’m just sayin’…

  • QOTD – Not a vodka guy – but I like you switching things up! Appreciate everything!
