I really liked Black Cow vodka when I tried it, very smooth (probably because it's made using milk).
Good vodka to drink straight

It is *very* smooth and light - Makes Smirnoff seem like raw sewage!!
A couple of the local classy restaurants stock it too, so I always like to avail myself!

Created by Dan Aykroyd, apparently...
You can buy it on Ama... err, I mean, The Rainforest!

Yup, he also has a wine range 
Plenty places stock it, it's just hard to justify the price as a poor lowly student hah!

I personally like Grey Goose and Zubrowka, though I wouldn't say no to some Absolut which has been in the freezer. 
Smirnoff is disgusting. It is cheap vodka in a fancy get-up.

Try Snow Queen. It is so smooth and has a little hint of sweetness.
I took a bottle out to a mate in Geneva a while back as we decided to try it at room temp. We drunk the whole bottle it was that nice.

Smirnoff is in a fancy get up?
Absolut is decent for the price - especially when you can get it for £9 a bottle in the caribbean... That said, Stolichnaya is only £7 a bottle out there and I'd rather have that Hmm, can't say I've heard of it before but it seems reasonably priced... Might give it a go.
Im also noticing that Crystal Head is starting to drop a bit in price. Soon...soon...

Not tried tons of vodka's but that's pretty much all I drink these days(usually with ice, squeezed lime and soda water), though sometimes straight with the premium brands.
My current order of preference would be.
"Premium" - Grey Goose, Crystal head, Belvedere, Snow Queen.
Cheap - Russian standard or that Bison one.
Grey Goose is my daily driver, usually get a bottle or two each time I visit CostCo.
Just ran out of Crystal Head and its very nice but a little expensive due to the awesome bottle.
Smirnoff is just awful.

Was planning on trying it properly (out of the freezer with a frozen granite shot glass) but just tried it neat at room temperature.
My god it is so smooth, I think I'm in love.

Was looking for someone else mentioning this!
Not a huge Vodka person (prefer Whisky if I'm going to drink spirits neat) but I tried Black Cow on a whim and it was nice and smooth
