    Default Potato Spirits

    I'm not really a drinker, but at times I will enjoy a cocktail or two if quality liquor is involved. A friend recently turned me on to Luksusowa. I was most impressed.

    Luksusowa (Polish for Luxury) Vodka is produced in Poland by Polmos from strobrowa potatoes . Distilled in a triple distilled then filtered through charcoal (the best traditional vodka filtration).

    This is one of the few vodkas made with potatoes - which contrary to popular prejudice (particularly vociferous among Russians for some reason) - is a premium ingredient for vodka. With about 1/3 less yield per kilo and a lot more prep work to ferment and distill, it makes for a difficult and expensive undertaking. Also people who suffer from Celiac's Disease (a genetic intolerance to gluten found in grains) will find this a welcome addition to the kinds of distilled spirits they can drink.
    Best of all, no "hangover" what-so-ever. If you enjoy vodka, you may want to give this one a try. Perfect for the holidays.

    Excellent. Thanks!

    There seems to be one of these things for just about everything important: guns, booze, and politics.

    Are there more Northwest Communities I should know about?

    That's good, but my wife and I like this better!



    My wife get's her hair cut across from New Deal Distillery, so we went for a tasting. It's great stuff.

    You guys should try sobieski or tito's handmade vodka. Both are very good and reasonably price. The sobieski is very smooth especially when chilled.
