Default Tito's vodka?

Found a bottle in the depths of the liquor cabinet. Distilled 6 times, made in Texas, from grain. Gonna try some this week. Any experiences with Tito's?

There's always a handle of Tito's in my freezer. It's not the best vodka in the world, but it's one of the best values I've ever come across. It'll hold its own in a martini and is cheap enough to mix with anything. Plus, it's from Texas

I can't say I have the vodka experience of James, but it's one of the better vodka's I've had. We always have a bottle in the freezer at my house. Cheap enough to keep around.

My uncle who is a HUGE vodka drinker told me about Tito's a while back. I bought a bottle because I love vodka . I thought it was pretty decent for the price, but I didn't think it was as smooth as some of my other "go to" vodkas like Three Olives, Grey Goose, Belvedere, and Ciroc.

My vodka type friends swear by it.... Say it's the best there is to drink, as I am a bourbon type, i can't really say.

Though I like Titos, and its unique flavor, I am a Stoli man myself.

I was gifted a bottle from a buddy down in Austin a few years back and never have had the nerve to open it up... I have heard some great things and some terrible things about this Vodka... may have to just bite the bullet and open it up to try...

As others have stated, it's a decent vodka. James is right that it's a great mixer. If you're based in Austin, Tito's is a very generous supporter of community events and the arts...they show up ready to party and aren't wankers like most alcohol sponsors. Nice people.

Cool man. I sometimes wish I could stomach vodka. The closest I've come to vodka my stomach agrees with is Luksusowa and even that is an uneasy relationship.

I hate to admit it, being that I'm totally a vodka snob, but James had me try it at the S.H.I.T. herf and it was damn good I must say

Finally tried it last night. It was good. My usual vodka, at home, is Luksusowa, because it's good and inexpensive. Don't know how much the Tito's is, or if it's even available here in Ohio, but I wouldn't mind keeping some in stock.

Have you tried Luksusova? It's an authentic potato vodka from Poland. Best inexpensive vodka I've ever had. My local liquor store has it in the liter bottle for $21. I swear by it... if I could only pronounce it...

I bought a bottle (never had it before) for the Midget Herf II this weekend with LasciviousXXX. Of course, we'll have some Youri Dolgoruki and Ciroc as well.
