Came across a sweet, sweet vlog all about vodka my favorite elixir in the world it's all about making martinis and vodka, sweet, sweet mother of all drinks.
Hmm. I'd like it more if it weren't one big ad for the vodka manufacturer in question.

Blended scotches are mostly crap, but Johnny Walker Green and Blue Label are damn good. Single malt all the way otherwise. I always blow a portion of my tax return on a really good bottle (Springbank 21 yr.... drooool).
For those of you on the West Coast USA, the Whiskeys of the World Expo is coming up.
However, my drinkin' whiskey is usually Irish. I sort of prefer Jamesons, but Tullamore Dew is a fine malt, too, a bit, I dunno, fruitier. There are others, but usually too expensive for daily consumption.
I can't stomach bourbon - too sweet for me (so is Rye) - but some of the top shelf varieties aren't bad.
As for vodka, I much prefer the real potato vodkas, usually from Poland or Russia. Chopin is a good one.
And there's only ONE martini, and its made with gin and vermouth. Anything else is foo-foo nonsense.
There's my two pennies worth.

xthlc: Let us not get into a discussion about gin versus vodka. It will end badly.
I simply don't see the point of a vodka martini. It tastes like denatured rubbing alcohol, unless you add other things to it. By the time you've loaded it up with curacao, banana schnapps and other such stuff, it has ceased to be a martini, and you should just call it something else.
The vodka martini is simply an evil conspiracy by lifestyle vodka manufacturers, attempting to push their skittles-flavored concoctions while lending an air of urbanity and sophistication to what we used to call a seabreeze, long island iced tea, etc.
There is plenty of room for variation and innovation in a martini while keeping the identity of the drink (gin and vermouth) the same.
That said, I like vodka too, as long as it's placed in the proper context. Some of the best drinking experiences of my life have been staying up late with friends knocking back liter after liter of ice-cold Tsarskaya with lox and radishes.

straight gin is repulsive, but with a splash of sweet vermouth and a twist.. ahhhh.. that's a wee bit of heaven.
That being said, a G 'n T is wonderful thing too. Personally I prefer Bombay Sapphire for a GnT and Tanquerey for martinis. Tanquerey used to have their "Malaca" variety, which was darn near the perfect martini gin, but alas they discontinued it. Tanquerey 10 will have to suffice for now.

"Most domestic distilled alcohol is made from corn. Which is mostly why it all sucks."
Like I said, SEND ME MONEY and I'll sample distillates from other lands. Failing that I'd have to say there are far worse things one could do with corn than age it into bourbon. Ever had 18 year old Elijah Craig?
As for McDermott, I really dig marijuana myself but I don't know any regular tokers -- and I'm too old to be hanging around schoolyards asking any kind of questions. (Are there any local Mefites who might spare a buzz? I'm obviously not any kind of cop!)

All commercial alcohol is made from corn.

Okay, perhaps I should have been less moronic and more specific: all domestic, generic-manufacturer alcohol is made from corn.
