You’re about 5 Years late to the Tito’s hipster party

An Austin-area buddy swears that Dripping Springs is even better than Tito's.

I haven't tried it yet but he's always been a reliable source when it comes to liquor and beer recommendations.

IMHO - Absolut vodka without question. Made in Sweden and considered over there as a cure for almost every ailment known to man. Years ago when a young guy in my 20's I caught a flu the night before a big date with a gorgeous Japanese/Canadian girl. My Swedish friend told me to get loaded on Absolut and orange juice the night before and guaranteed me I'd be fine for the date. He was right. Its the only vodka I've ever drank since. :-)

Bison Grass vodka is awesome

i had forgotten all about that one!

Kirkland apparently bought a Grey Goose distillery with all the equipment. They use the same ingredients and follow the same processes. Grey Goose is probably the vodka I drink the most, and I couldn't believe how close Kirkland tasted to Grey Goose. I don't live anywhere near a Costco though, so can't get Kirkland very often. For the difference in taste, the price more than makes up for it.

Does Costco deliver?

Starting from scratch...

Well they do online... maybe?

Austin area has quite a few local vodkas. I used to drink Dripping Springs an my go-to, but have now moved to Deep Eddy vodka (another local distillery). It is same price as Costco Kirkland brand also, so pretty affordable.

.

Deep Eddy's buys ethanol from ADM then distills it t their liking. I believe Tito's starts with grains, but could be mistaken.

Pactimo brand ambassador, ask me about promo codes

If you find a source for this, please let me know. I've tried to google-fu it, but come up empty handed.

Their website says their vodka is distilled from corn, but I guess they don't specifically say that they mash their own grain for the first distillation.

I still like it though. Tastes good to me.

I spent 5 hours in a car with one of the founders on our way to a MTB race. At a minimum they bring in trucks of ethanol in for their flavored vodkas, I would assume for their plain vodka as well. They get trucks from ADM and distill it however many times then dilute with the local mineral rich ATX water.
