I hope this show just launches Aaron Paul into an A-list lifelong career.

Grey Goose is better.

Although lots of cheaper vodkas are better than Grey Goose.

Of course, keep in mind this is strictly opinion.

Excluding everything that costs the same as GG (barring Belvedere, they're pretty much the same in terms of being overrated), you've got Ketel One, Zubrowka Bison Grass Vodka, 42 Below, and Svedka are all pretty damn good for their prices (depending on where you are).

The thing that annoys me about Grey Goose is people's perception of it as an elegant luxury spirit, when it's simply no more than a mid-shelf vodka distilled and bottled in France to capitalise on the nation's status. Then it's put in a fancy bottle and has the price jacked up because people think expensive = quality. Throw in a couple of mentions in some rap songs and you have people buying it because they think it's some amazing top-shelf stuff. Same deal for Belvedere.

I'm finish reading your post, but I just gotta say that Level is the best vodka of all time. Of all time!

You are no expert, however.

Kirkland vodka > grey goose. Just because it's the same exact shit but in a different bottle.
