Default Re: making premium tasting vodka out of plastic bottle crap

[ QUOTE ]
I take your word for it, but this is the type of "experiment" I'm having doubts about. After five tastings, pretty much anything is going to start to taste better. I'd be curious to do a blind tasting of crap vs. filtered crap, side by side one after the other.

We were taking very small samples, and I was also doing exactly the experiment you describe. (We took some out after each filtration so we could do side-by-side tests.) There were noticible differences between vodkas 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4. By the 5th trip through there wasn't much change.

BTW, what type of whiskey did you use?

I think it was the Vons store-brand whiskey - it's an American whiskey iirc. It was certainly bad, that much I can tell you.
