For all the drinkers out there...who has tried Kirkland brand Vodka from Costco??? I've heard that its JUST LIKE Grey Goose. Some people say that IT IS Grey Goose bottled in a Kirkland bottle...has anyone had it before?
The reason I ask is because I'm going to Vegas this weekend and I'm bringng out some bottles for pre-partying, but dont want to fork out $60+ for the costco sized Grey Goose..the Kirkland vodka is the same size for half the price!
Let me know ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

Not sure how it rolls with Vodkas, but I know with brown liquors if you buy cheap sh*t you will feel the difference in the morning.

I thought vodka really didnt have a taste? But in my experience the feeling after a night of cheap alcohol is tremendously diff from premium stuff. But again I dont drink gin or vodka so I may be off base here.

Both of the above mentioned will get you where you are going. Just how bad you want to hate yourself in the morning is the real question.

Here is the thing about Costco's "Kirkland" brand liquor/wine/beer. It is indeed the same premium liquor but they purchase the barrels/inventory that didn't make their cut. The vodka may have more impurities or a discrepancy in flavor that does not pass their strict test but I'm sure if you chill it the average palate won't know the difference.

I forgot to add that sometimes they contract work out (I know they do this for other products too) where the product is made in the same region/factory and uses the same materials/ingredients.

I didn't realize that this is a clipped version from the full one. I searched for the full version but can't seem to find it from my phone.

I don't doubt this but are they made with the same standards and go through the same quality control? I have had the Kirkland Macallan 18 and it was made by Macallan and aged 18 years like the rest of it's scotch but it was not the same. But for the money it could not be beat.

this is a great topic,
i know that what you spend is what you get in regards to tequila, but I didnt know this about vodkas. I'm not a vodka drinker, but this is good to know.
with Tequilas, I don't touch the garbage stuff like sauza and don julio. fuck that shit.
same is true with cognacs and dark spirits.
case in point, i tried "cisco" a few years back, needless to say , NEVER AGAIN. haha

This works best you have a bunch of dumb ass bitches over. They start who hawing about, oh shit the goose gets ya loose. And" I love goose cause i dont get hung over on it" Fuck that shit bitch, buying you kirkland but a pimps drink goose. They wont know the difference. Shit works good with a empty bottle of captain morgan, then you put in the i cant believe its not captain bottle. They never know the difference, until they wake up in the morning.
