It’s easy to see why Grey Goose has become one of the most successful new liquor brands in recent years. This is a fantastic vodka, smooth and lightly sweet, with a nutty nose and aftertaste that works well in cocktails and adds an interesting complexity when served straight.
Grey Goose is very mild, quite neutral on the whole. Maybe a hint of pepper, or citrus fruit, if you search for it. It’s also not too oily, even when ice cold, a common trait of virtually all vodkas.
And yet, for all its heralded luxury status, Grey Goose is not all that expensive. $27 compares well to some similar ultra-luxe brands and it tastes far better. Sure, I’d rather have Tito’s or Boomerang at about $16, but those are boutique bottles that you aren’t likely to find in the average bar. Grey Goose? It’s everywhere, and if you’re calling a vodka brand, this is one that merits the hype that surrounds it.

Having had many vodkas, almost universally neat and somewhat chilled, I can say that grey goose ranks as one of the worst vodkas I’ve tasted. The strong liquorice flavor is exactly what you don’t want in a vodka; it tastes much closer to Jaegar than vodka. Nice bottle; not worth the $32-$37 it costs around these parts; I’d be tempted to take a real vodka like Hangar One and re bottle it, but that would disgrace Hangar One.
GG is a good one, and for the record no hangover.
Salud!

I remember when I was 12, I had to have Vidal Sassoon shampoo. But then, I became 13, 14, well I just kept getting older and older and, I don’t know, maybe more mature. If your date demands Grey Goose, then you are a dirty old man and if I were you I’d proceed with caution if you want to hold on to the ‘vette and the bank account!

Grey Goose is overrated swill, blind you cannot distinguish it from a cheap brand like Absolut or Alberta Pure. Reviews like this really make me wonder about the integrity of these websites.
