Sainsbury's Vodka -5

Number 5 At the last spot we have that of Sainsbury's vodka, a drink oh so delightful that it needs no name, if you have been feeling under the weather look no further! with a swig of this vodka you will either clean your insides or kill yourself! Sainsbury's vodka is quite honestly some of the worst tasting spirits you can get and at times I've drank it -not by choice may i mention- I've wondered the legality of this almost moonshine and if i was gonna wake up with the same vision as i had the night previous. All jokes aside this truly isn't an enjoyable beverage and takes a lot of juice to make bearable but nevertheless if need be the drink is that, bearable. This sweet treat comes in at an absolute staggering £12.00 per 70cl from your local Sainsbury's which is just simply unbeatable and i mean unbeatable as i have yet to find a vodka (in Scotland) that comes in at a cheaper price tag and given we are taking price tag as the most significant factor in this li

Absolut Vodka-4

Number 4 At the number 4 spot we have no other than Absolut vodka with this being the most expensive on the list coming in at £22.00 per 70cl, Absolut vodka made it on to the top 5 as although is can be as significantly more expensive compared to other branded counterparts such as Glenn's. There is a reasoning for the slightly higher price tag that comes with this brand and that's the simple fact of quality, arguably not even with the general taste of the beverage but even so the branding makes you feel like you are drinker a higher class spirit due to its more refined design (as can be seen below) and feeling of the bottle. Moreover that is not the only factor in which this beverage does stand out as although it does look higher quality it simply is overall, the smoothness etc. just makes it stand above most vodkas under its price range as Absolut is quite an even middle ground between the bottom of the barrel and the stuff you may buy to somewhat treat yourself. The reasoning

Number 3-Glen's

Number 3 To start the list is that of Glen's vodka also known as the vodka most likely to be mixed with cheap soda by local children in the nearest park on a Friday/Saturday night. Although this drink is rather infamous for being drank by just barely teenagers in the local "scheme" there is a very good reason for this, Glen's is quite possibly the cheapest branded vodka there is possible on the market and therefor this is why the sheer smell of it brings me back to lying in the middle of a field hoping that i make it home in time for dinner. Now although this vodka is cheap there is an extremely valid reason for this and that valid reason is that the taste and smell of the liquid resembles that of paint thinner of nail polish. Moreover though is we cannot be hasty as now this is a list made for the likes of those living in University accommodation of Tesco meal deals and club hangovers and this has to be taken into heavy consideration whilst ranking such a high qualit

Smirnoff -2

Number 2 At the number two spot we have that of Smirnoff Vodka, a fairly cheap vodka, often seen used in various dark and dingy nightclubs in the lovely nightlife which is that of Glasgow. Smirnoff is another branded vodka and feels to hit a middle ground between that of Absolut vodka and Glen's, in my opinion both that of price and quality of beverage with the price coming in at £17.50 for a 70cl of the product with that being 5 pounds cheaper than Absolut and 2.50 pounds more expensive to that of Glenn's. Smirnoff although still not entirely for the faint of heart, its not something that's going to make you gag upon cracking open the bottle and then again not to mention this is heavily based on the pricing and $17.50 is still a remarkably good price when in comes to a bottle of spirits in this coming of age crisis cost and you will still be hard stuck to find much cheaper branded alternatives on the market. Now where Smirnoff really seems to find its edge and audience is

Ignis Vodka-1

Number 1  At the number one spot it is one that i believe is hands down the most underrated vodka in the game, in my experience i have yet to hear anyone rave or rant when it comes to Ignis although i do have a theory for that and that's it its own brand! Ignis is a Lidl own brand vodka priced at a very reasonable £17.00 for a 70cl of this delight. Its been known to be a knock off "Grey Goose" due its design (as can be seen below) and quite frankly i think its an insult as although of course the quality of Grey Goose is better but at the same time is double the price! I first bought this treat expecting the worst, cheap, gut wrenching own brand vodka from a supermarket not particularly known for high quality produce, only to open the bottle and have no such sense of that from the smell. Intrigued i took a swig from the bottle - as the oh so brave man i am- and to my absolute shock could stomach the drink raw and warm for that matter of fact. Now am i saying i would have t
