A Scottish vodka, distilled from sugar beet. It was originally named Grants vodka, before William Grant & Sons appealed to the Scottish Courts for the name to be changed.
The first time I had it in 2009 at university it reminded me of cleaning fluid. So I used it to clean with. In 2024 I was duped into being handed vodka by an acquaintance. Like they say ' the body keeps the score'. My liver and body hurts the day after and I only had a few shots. God have mercy on those who drink a bottle of this vile poison.
Honestly, after moving to the UK for study-related purposes I did not expect much from this. But it is surprisingly clean, tad lemony and a nice tangy aftertaste. Perhaps a bit too clean to my taste, but still nice, whether by itself or in a Vodka Martini. I honestly say to give it a try. It can surprise.
This vodka has some good points, some bad points. This vodka is cheap, it is a powerful spirit and it has some subtle overtones of lemon. It is similar to Smirnoff and it is a good mixer. Since most people miss vodka with other drinks, it is a good cheap alternative to more expensive products. The bad point is that I always find it gives me terrible heartburn on the day I drink it, and it is very acidic. Other vodkas also cause some heartburn but this one os noticeably worse. Overall, it is good value for money, and a decent product to have in the drinks cupboard, especially since more premium bands cost much more anyway .
Did a side by side comparison with this and Smirnoff drank neat and couldn't tell much of a difference. If anything id say the Glens had slightly less of an after bite. It's vodka, nothing to get excited about but nothing to snub your nose at either. Most of what your paying is VAT.
Good vodka, always drunk neat on it's own in a glass. If you have to mix this or anything, then you don't like it. For example I put salt and vinegar on my chips but not my chill or Curry's which means I don't like chips. Same with people who put coke or pop in spirits or sugar or sweetener in tea or coffee means they don't like spirits, tea or coffee
