If you would like to read more Vodka reviews, I suggest you start here. If Whisky is God's drink, Vodka is the People's drink. Vodka is simple and clean, made for extreme revelry and sadness. Vodka is not, nor should ever be, like wine: it is our little water, the sweetheart of men. Sunday, October 23 2005
We had heard about and seen this vodka for a long time, and had had many a laugh at it: after all, French vodka sounds like an unlikely thing, and the price is quite high. A few days ago, we saw a tiny taster on display and decided that a few dollars was a reasonable price to find out what this Goose was all about. We looked at the bottle very carefully, and there is no mention of citrus anywhere, so it does not appeared to have been flavoured, yet it certainly tasted like lemon to me: so bear in mind that I might be reviewing their lemon-flavoured product, instead of their basic vodka. It's nice and clean with a light body and a very crisp ending. The taste, as I said, is mostly of citrus, but you can also taste the grain rather better than expected for such a light vodka. Over all, very easy-drinking with hardly any burn, rather nice, in fact. So, is it a good vodka? Yes, unquestionably better than many. Is it worth the price tag? No, not as far as I'm concerned. Nor, as a matter of fact, does it deserve the hysterical reviews it seems to be getting everywhere on the internet. [/Vodka/France] permanent link |
