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.
