Disadvantages: a tad strong, alchohol is bad, m'kay

I spent a year in Russia, followed by three months touring Scandinavia. If there be one topic I feel qualified to talk about it is Vodka. In Russia they seemed to drink vodka instead of water, I have experienced the local moonshine, which can leave you blind (literally) to the Rare special blends valued more highly than caviar. Frankly I love it.
One particular delicacy is home made, or rather flavoured vodka. It is possible to get any flavour imaginable simply by leaving the vodka in a large plastic bottle with what ever flavour your trying to get (orange, banana, garlic anything). There are special five spice vodkas that have apparent medicinal purposes; they are very strong and quite nasty. One, which I fell in love with, was horseradish-flavoured vodka. Sublimely strong and powerful it can clear the sinuses at fifty paces. There is simply nothing like I have ever experienced. That is until I tried Absolut pepper.
I had a shooter pepper vodka, Tabasco and triple sec. It was great, ever since I have been able to reminisce by smelling it. While the Swedish vodka is finer and more syrupy, entirely different from the Russian it is still really good, it will put hairs on your chest and bring tears to the eyes, not for the faint hearted, but still, carpe diem.

Welcome to DooYoo indeed ! Always good to have aview from a fellow 'enthusiast' (of Russia and alcohol). Pleas write more of your experiences in Russia.

Pepper Vodka is not my favourite. Possibly because I recall a sample that I analysed in 1976 (I am an Analytical Chemist- among other things) that had been 'taken' from a dead 'down-and-out by the poilice. It comprised a mixture of 'British Sherry', cayenne pepper, and methylated spirit !!!. Apparently the cayenne was added to remove the 'flavour' of the 'meths' .....
