I like Arbikie, a Scots one made from spuds - the fact I got pissed up with the owner and have numerous bottles for free has nothing to do with this decision
An odd experience was going to a Polish wedding where there was literally nothing else to drink but vodka the whole day/night.
Bored help required. .Vodka...

One of life's pleasures. Chilled vodka. Smoked Salo. Black bread.
Presumably. Somehow never really quite remember how good, bad or indifferent it tasted , the next day.

All the money you made will never buy back your soul

In Poland they make a drink called Cytrynówka, most bars sell it for a few zloty's a shot. Basically a home made Lemon vodka type drink which has an insidious kick. It is part Spritus (basically pure alchohol), half normal vodka, a whole bundle of lemons and some honey...every household makes their own, its bloody delicious. I have made my own and it was suprisingly good. They also use it as a medicine to ward off colds, flu, covid, bubonic plague and the like.
