For the Vodka drinkers: Filter your cheap stuff with Brita filter....

Every time I send anything to a corporate email address, all I get back is crap. Props to Pur for putting the time in to respond to this question and make it a funny response.

I haven't read this entire thread, but here is some insider information:

Many years ago I worked in the production side of a distiller that producted two vodkas, one a well-known premium brand and the other a cheapie brand. There was a very significant taste difference between the two. Both vodkas were both produced from the same raw products-the major difference was the filtering process used.

Charcoal filtering was a major step in the vodka production.

All vodka is charcoal filtered. Maybe they used Kingsford charcoal for the premium and Save-&-Slave brand for the plonk?

Probably not. You've no idea what ramifications this has for us simple college folk. Hottest deal I've seen on theses forums. Ever. :thumbsup:

Yeah no joke bro, McCormick vodka is 9.99 for a HANDLE of it. It literally smells like rubbing alcohol, you can only drink it when it is almost frozen and after a long night of drinking. I might try this out lol

Old McCormick's got the best of me quite a few times my freshman year of college. You just can't beat the value of 9 bucks getting 4 guys completely sh!tfaced.

I'm too old to try these tricks now, but I will be sure to pass this on to my little brother who is in his first semester of college.
