06/12/2008 | I discovered Rain vodka when I stopped in for a tour of the distillery where it is made in Frankfort, Kentucky. This is my personal favorite of all the vodkas I have tried with Skyy being a close second. It has a great smooth taste and I enjoy the sweetness of it. Perhaps I am a little biased being a native Kentuckian, but as far as I am concerned, it is some great great vodka. Always a bottle of it in my freezer.

04/24/2008 |  I bought this from my local store upon recommendation from the sales clerk. I was looking out of curiosity for a vodka that didn't have quite the bite (as Absolut) at room temperature as opposed to a smooth mellow taste when chilled or iced down in the freezer. Also I wanted to perfect my Bloody Mary recipe and have a better Martini. I bought this, tried it out and must say I personally was disappointed. The aroma and taste is deffinitely that of corn alcohol. Being a good old boy from NC, I can honestly say (to me, anyway) it's more along the lines of NC white lightning. It is smooth, and has the distinctive corn taste and aroma, but it'll jump up and grab you when you're least expecting it. The Bloody Marys and Martinis are simply not as robust and full of body with Rain as they are with Absolut. I've tried many and can only give Rain 3 out of 5. For now, I'll stick with Absolut. But my girlfriend was happy when I brought it home. She likes the cute bottle.
But it's what one prefers. It's not the cheap stuff, but for my enjoyment, I personally don't think it's worth the price.

07/07/2007 | I tried "Rain" for the first time in October, 2003. Since then I have tried, Grey Goose, Stolichnaya, Kettel One, Svedka, Polar Ice and Gordons. Well, "Rain" wins hands down!
I live here in Kentucky where Rain is made, and tried it at the distillery the first time I ever tasted it. I heard through the "grapevine" that at one of the competitions a Russian judge commented, "Whatever you all are doing in Kentucky, please keep doing it, for this is great vodka." Now when a Russian judge compliments your vodka, then you've done something. So, we Kentuckians not only know how to make bourbon, but now we rank high on the list of those who know how to make vodka. Marlene1 said it is "smooth as silk." Well, I could not have said it better myself! It's the BEST!

05/26/2007 | I love vodka but can't have any wheat - so have been on the hunt for alternatives. Having plowed through the potato vodkas and finally settling for Cirac - the french grape vodka - I found Rain. It is the best vodka I have ever had - and smooth as silk. It amuses me that I am now essentially drinking corn liquor.

02/17/2007 | I probably don't have the experience with vodka that the other reviewer have as I spent many years drinking Jack Daniels. I've found I don't have the hangovers as bad and Rain vodka is the best in this regard. I like them shaken over ice with no garnishment and cut with a little water. Rain is my favorite served this way with Ketel One a close second.

03/29/2006 | This vodka is in the class of some of the finest Russian vodkas I have tasted to date. In October I was in Russia and was introduced to one of the smoothest and most flavorful premium Vodkas, Russian Standard. I have to say that Rain comes very close to the high end vodkas and should become a stand out here in the US.

05/19/2004 | In a very (un) sophistocated taste test, four of us rated Rain the best of the nine total vodkas we tasted. Very very smooth, with no harsh aftertaste.
