Worth every penny
I was reading the tasting notes in the review and thought they sounded too good to be true for a vodka, but they're accurate. The a vegetal herbaceousness with underlying corn sweetness is genuinely there, the while the corn base provides gentle sweetness and balance delivers, and the vegetal notes is exactly as described. Served this at a tasting with friends last weekend — everyone was surprised how much character it has. We did a blind comparison against two other brands and this won hands down.

Good but not great
Decent vodka for the price. The nose is clean — I got the Fresh green pepper that the review mentions — but the palate didn't wow me. The while the corn base provides gentle sweetness and balance is fine but nothing special, and I'd have preferred more character coming through. That said, the vegetal notes is clean enough. Works well in cocktails where you don't need a premium bottle.
