Finally tried Grey Goose vodka

I normally buy Ketel One, although I also like Tito's and will buy that if it's on sale. Anyway my local market had Grey Goose on sale for $19.99 so I decided to give it a try. I gotta say I'm not sure what all the fuss is about. My first impression is that it's good, but I actually prefer Ketel One and Tito's.
Jmho.

I get Tito's just to support "local" business. If you like that you may also like Dripping Springs, another TX vodka.

The fuss was around 2003 or so. You a little late. LOL
Google the story about it.
Pure marketing genius and good timing with a revival of martinis( pretend ones).
And someone will be along shortly to tell you all vodka is the same.

It's not ALL the same but I promise OP could not pick any of those vodkas out if I put them in front of him.

Lots of of people will claim they are ALL the same.
I tend to agree, that once you get to a certain quality point, they are all about the same. But you will know it if you are drinking a $12 bottle with just ice and maybe an onion or a few olives.

I heard somewhere that most of their spirits come from Indiana or something like that. Is that true?

It is made from corn. But I think all the distilling and bottling is still south of Austin.

Is it expensive?
I honestly don't drink vodka often. I keep some in the freezer for guests. The only thing I usually drink at home is Bulleit Bourbon and beer.

Not even close.
A handle is $35 where I live. It is my go to Vodka.

Not at all. Compared to Taaka maybe. I think I pay $32 for a handle.

Ketel One > Tito's > Grey Goose
My preference is Breckinridge but it's a bit hard to come by on the east coast sometimes. Their bourbon is a lot more ubiquitous here, and it's dame good as well.

Yep...if you price it much higher, people will assume it must be much better.

used to. They agreed the taste is worth $15. Everyone jumped on the train and they increased their prices.
