Vodka collection requirements

You know, I always thought these were one and the same. Black label?

Yup, black labels.

I bought the Cristall on import and then when I was the Gold in the shop I just thought either my mind was playing tricks on me or they had just rebranded so I started buying that. I found out later, when my wife bought me another Cristall that they were different and the Cristall is smoother.

There's a nice Vodka I picked up in Bulgaria called Flirt. My parents who love Stoli say it's just as nice. Don't let the name put you off though, it is quite nice stuff.
 
Palace vodka well thats what its called in english dont know if its the same in russian.. yummy stuff. They were selling it in a vodka shop across the road from mcd's in moscow.

Ahh new years eve 99/00 red square moscow, wreaked on vodka :) top night
 
Of the ones you haven't got but have been mentioned I'd have to go with Russky Standardt, Zubrowka and Boru. Zubrowka is great with apple juice but the flavour takes a bit of getting used to if you are going to be drinking it straight.
 
Want:

Finlandia
Chopin ????
Armadale (Scottish vodka!)
Zyr
Boru
Effen

Blavod is just in the collection because it was won in a raffle unless I'm reading it wrong. It isn't a proper premium vodka by any stretch but it is also a very long way from being the worst I've ever drunk.

damn i just bought my sister a bottle of blavod as she loes the stuff im not too keen on it tbh hope its not terrible or my sis will go mad :p just got it because ive never seen it before :o might have to get her another premium bottle mentioned by you hardened vodka drinkers :) so i dont get in trouble :p

happy drinking
 
Not really tried Vodka much - mainly drink whisky.
What would you suggest from the ones mentioned to try first time?
Also, maybe daft question but how do you all drink it? Neat or mixed?
