I have to disagree, while you may have the notion that the root beer flavored vodka is centered toward college students, what drinks are not? i have seen countless people drink anything even if its any kind of flavor, and if your implying that their target audience is that age group, why wouldn’t it be, its marketing genius. There is however a more important, more realistic item here… as much as you would think that it is centered around college kids and the likes, it is only available by special request in 75% or areas nationwide, so it isn’t feasible to say that this isn’t actually targeting their already extensive fan base and giving them a bonus.

I also must disagree! I avoid most flavored vodkas and stick with Pravda, Goose, Ciroc, and Shakers. The two exceptions are Players Extreme Carmel and now 3 Olives root beer. Neither of which are sold in Pennsylvania. I’m 54 and I admit that many friends didn’t want to consider it, but after trying it, found it light tasting and smooth. What I would not try is their tomato flavor. If I want tomato flavored vodka, I’ll simply make a real Bloody Mary.

95% of the flavored vodkas are made from extracts. These are often one note flavors with little depth and a touch of sweetness. Even the tomato vodka from Three Olives came off as lacking.
Seek out some of the small scale artisan spirits. Hanger One makes a Kaffer lime leaf vodka that is quite nice. Charbay’s Blood Orange vodka is made from the real thing. Sub Rosa Spirits makes a Tarragon vodka made with fresh tarragon leaves and a Saffron vodka made with eight or ten fresh ground and toasted spices. You can get really nice flavored vodak if you dig around a little.

I agree with you Jon. There are many wonderful flavored vodkas on the market worth the hunt.

I disagree. I tried the root beer vodka after reading about a Boston restaurant that served a 3 Olives Rootbeer Float with IBC Rootbeer and vanilla ice cream. It’s been a lot of years since I had a rootbeer float and it hit to spot on a hot summer night. I wish I had been able to get a smaller bottle, but I enjoyed it all the same.
