Review: Goat Peach-Flavored Vodka
I bought this vodka a while back from my local liquor store in Castle Rock solely because I noticed that it was distilled in Palisade, Colorado. In addition I was charmed that they proudly said they flavored their vodka with real Palisade peaches. Needless to say when I opened this bottle at a party some weeks ago with was with favorable expectations that were soon dashed. Peach Street Distillers has managed to make the worst vodka I have ever had the misfortune to imbibe and the second worst liquor of any sort to ever pass my lips. If I save even one consumer from purchasing this vile concoction I will have done a lifetime's worth of good deeds. It is that bad, no exaggeration.
When smelling this liquid the first thing that assaults the nose is a sort of hospital smell, one part bandage one part rubbing alcohol. No vodka should smell like this. The peach note is hidden under this overwhelming foulness. The taste reminds me of rotting peach fruit mixed with a burning contaminated alcohol. I don't know if this is a result of their flavoring attempts or because of some fault in their distilling of the base alcohol and given the expensive price I'm not curious to find out by buying their unflavored vodka.
Don't buy it, thumbs down. Avoid this distillery forever!

The funniest Vodka I have ever seen and indeed bought was called Black Death Vodka. The picture was of a skull, with a top hat, and cigar. It came in its own Coffin Box. I bought it for a friend, and he loved it!!!

I'm always hesitant about cutely packaged alcohol. I like just plain ol' Skyy Vodka.

I love Gin, good gin that is, Good scotch, and Irish Whiskey, Rum, and Tokillya, the good stuff that is...
And a number of other things that are more obscure. Oh and I love, Love Absinthe...

Kavlana is a total stinker, one of the worst products in Frank-Lin's line of cheap junk-ass dive-bar well spirits.

I generally avoid cutesy alcoholic concoctions (bartender's abominations excepted, in circumstances usually avoided) and (un)naturally flavoured liquor, so I'm probably safe, even if I never remember the details of the abomination you describe.
I did have some really lovely herb-tinged vodka at the Russian Vodka Party at L.A.Con IV, but it's the sort of thing that I only trust a knowledgeable person to recommend to me. It's unlikely that I'd stumble over it unguided.
