Vodka has flavor? I thought it was used solely for cleaning dirty car parts.
It's subtle. I can honestly say the Sobieski is better than the Smirnoff, but that's as far as my experience goes. There isn't a lot to it, and if you're mixing it down with sugary mixes, I doubt it makes a difference. It's no whisky, and I couldn't see collecting it like whisky, but it's an amusing change of pace, and once I find "the brand" I like, I don't see getting anything else, and that's assuming it goes that far.

I actually had that in my hand when I saw the Sobieski. I got the Sobieski based on price, and the fact that vodka (arguably)originated in Poland. I've always been skeptical of vodka. The flavor's not that complicated, and I've suspected people are being had by "premium" vodka brands. I'm still not convinced, but there's a little more there than I previously thought. I'm gonna slowly explore the offerings, and I'll likely get Tito's at some point.
I have to try Sobieski . Luksusowa is a decent cheap Polish Vodka also.

It's awful, cheesy, and now gone! Got it a few years ago for my daughter to make some dessert drinks, and it's been here ever since. I was using it on ice cream, but I got tired of seeing the bottle.Completely artless. Some shitty grain alcohol with 'My First Chemistry Set' flavor added. People should have more self respect...

man, I love stouts and porters, but I hate barrel-aged stouts. I hate whiskey/scotch flavor in my beer. I like both of these things, but If I want whiskey I will drink whiskey. If I want a stout, I want to drink a stout.

Fours Roses Single Barrel Select. Barrel proof, but not too harsh on the tongue/throat. Notes of leather and vanilla. Delicious with a squirt of water.

I imagine you're probably wondering how this beverage tastes.
It's an expansion on the Big Red soda flavor that's been around forever. We now have Big Blue and Big Peach options.

Starts off with a tangy citrus peachiness, reminiscent of gummy peaches or peach Jolly Ranchers, and finishes up with a lingering light cream flavor that isn't too cloying (unlike cream soda). Rather like sucking the foam off a root beer.

Unfortch it isn't produced in a real sugar formula - though Big Red itself does exist with an alternate sugar formula.
I'd drink it again.

(Competes with Peach Crush which doesn't feature a creamy finish.)

Love Ovaltine. I get both plain malt(harder to find) and chocolate malt. I don't know why it isn't more popular. All the kids I ever gave it to never had it before and loved it. After Ovaltine, stuff like Quik is just lame in comparison.
