* Each participant in our Taste-Offs is given a set of randomly selected vodkas to taste and compare. Each vodka sample is about 0.5 ounces and is served at room temperature in a small, plastic shot glass. The glass is marked only by a Russian letter. The taste is fully blind, and only the organizers know which of the 16 vodkas competing corresponds to which vodka.
Participants give each of their vodkas a score of 1-5, with 1 being the lowest and 5 the highest. Each vodka is tasted by between 30-40 individuals. Scores for each vodka are then averaged to arrive at final rankings.
