Make cheap rotgut vodka taste like expensive vodka

Though this guy only uses himself as a test subject for tasting, I'm willing to bet that this simple process works. He's right about vodka being essentially just alcohol and water, so by removing as many impurities as possible you should make it smoother, i.e., better. So if any of you sifters try this please send me a sample bottle. And some spare change.

I'm not a big vodka drinker myself, but when I do drink it I'd like it to have less bite than the cheap shit has.

Now GIN makes me want to vomit. After 2 or 3 quarts I begin to feel pretty sick.

tried it, in fact, drinking 5 filtered McCormick's right now(used a Britta pitcher)...it really works, but unlike an Absolut, the proof of the McCormicks does not change, just the smoothness......and with Absolut, well, you are paying for the filtration......

Ok, I'm not so sure part of this isn't placebo. choggie, have someone blind taste test you with switched around glasses.

I'm thinking even cheap crappy vpdka went through decent industrial filtering, so I have toruble believing it does all that much. Now of course, if it is all plastic taste that ruins cheap vodka, and somehow carbon filters suck up plastic odor/taste molecules, then this would work.

Also, do NOT try this with a used filter. I'm guessing from my little Alton Brown based knowledge you will be dissolving and freeing up some previously filter nastiness.

if you can't do this with cheap weed, i'm not interested.

btw for those of you who don't like vodka, you need to try the real stuff, with all those funny russian letters on it. mmmmmm.

or if you are totally hardcore, go to Belarus, get horseradish vodka, it's unreal.
