Gin in the freezer?

[MrWookie]

Peter,

I'd consider turning down gin that came from a plastic bottle, but even then it's iffy.

Troy,

I've considered plunking down for a bottle or two of finer vodkas, one potato, and one made from grapes, actually. When I get around to it, I'll post a thorough review of them compared to Fris, my current staple.

This interests me. How distinctive, and what differentiates them apart? When you're talking about whiskey or scotch, you can get all sorts of various smokey, carmel and oak tastes, and also have differing tastes from initial sip to swallow and to finish. I'm curious what you think such would be for vodka.

Vodka is more subtle than whisk(e)y.
Ketel One is very smooth and crisp with a very slight citrus aroma and flavor.
Stoli has a little more heat than the K1 is more earthy with a slight grain flavor.
Absolute is a little oily I always mix it.
Luksusowa is rather creamy and sweet and with a little burn.
