Burnett's Vodka 5

I got a bottle of the cherry flavored after reading the reviews. Cut up a fresh lime took off the peels and put them in the bottle. Tastes fine one oz that and one oz pineapple orange juice. no reason to get anything more expensive for mixed drinks. It is only near the skol because of the price not the taste.

Update: So I went ahead and got a BIG bottle of this unflavored. I have to mix my vodka with something, and I think freshly squeezed limes are the best for this. I squeezed out 2 limes in a 1/5th bottle and filled it up with the regular vodka. Makes it taste great for a flavored vodka ( i mean it's vodka, ain't gonna taste like a cloud no matter what you do with it).

for shots I always take a double shot glass, fill 1/2 with liquor, and the other 1/2 with whatever...sprite, orange juice, whatever you like.

For those look at this review and are confused by the mix of one star, and 5 star reviews this is the meat and potatoes:
this vodka costs 13 dollars for a 1/2 gallon while grey goose is like 30 for a 1/5th. If you take straight shots of vodka, then YES you are going to say that the grey goose is better tasting. If you mix it you arn't going to tell the difference.

When comparing by taste only, I would have to say that burnetts beats out top rated vodkas such as: stoli, sky, 360, and smirnoff. It dosen't even compare to those in the same price range such as SKOL. you'd have to take a tic tac sized piece of charcoal, chew that up, then wash it down with a shot of burnetts to make it taste as bad as SKOL.

if you like my reviews, follow me. I'll be making more.

Great vodka for the Price. Just as good as Skyy but half the price. I used to drink skyy now all I buy is Burnett's. It take's a lot for me to get a hangover so the hangover's everyone is talking about doesn't bother me. Can't beat it!!!

It is the worst thing i have ever tasted, and no i didn't have it just once. I drank the whole bottle and had to suffer through the whole thing. burnett's should lose their distilling license and who ever thinks its the best should never be listened to..

Worth getting a "cheap booze hangover" the next day because it's so cheap ($13.99 1.75L). After consuming a lot of this stuff and before you go to bed, drink a lot of water. This dilutes the alcohol and lessens the hangover.

Burnett's grape flavored vodka...I was trying to recreate a "fun dip" shot, and found that it tasted like grape flavored chemical. Dear Burnett's, I tried to inform you but there is not contact info on your website!

Have been a Skyy drinker for years until a friend turned me onto Burnett's. Great taste, it goes down smooth and mixes with whatever you like without any odd after taste. For the price it can't be beat. You can have your so called top shelf. Burnett's is top shelf for me.

Great going down, BUT...
the cheap booze hangover is hellish. We cycled a couple of bottles through our home bar, then cried uncle. No more Burnett's at our house.

Awful stuff, what is it doing here, especially with a such a high score?
Just had unflavored straight, and can't even give it one star, but have to, I guess,
stay away.

This is the best value for Vodka you can get. After putting it to the test against Ketle One and Grey Goose, this had the smoothest finish. Pretty looking bottles and advertising is what you're paying for when you buy those "premium" vodkas, not because they're necessarily the best.

Burnett's has taken my enjoyment of vodka by storm. I was convinced that Skyy was the top of the affordable premium vodkas (Goose, Sky, Stolti, ect...), but Burnett's quickly changed my mind. Hangover rating has to be at the very lowest end of the scale and enjoyment of taste, well almost lack of heavy taste that is, and mix-ability are at the top of the scale. On the rocks, or mixed, it should truly be on the top shelf.

Bought a 750ml for $6.99; citrus. Nice, cannot beat the price and quality combo. Rivals Svedka at half the price.

Incredible value. Almost as good as brands 3 times the price. It's $10 for a fifth here. I like to make screwdrivers with the watermelon flavor.

The most popular brands in my area are Burnett's and HRD (Hood River Distilleries, OR brand) and this is leagues above HRD. Plus, HRD comes in plastic bottles!

smooth and clean, no bite that could have teenagers choking and hiding their latent homosexuality. A slightly sweet hint, for a vodka. great for mixing or neat, a all around spirit for any application. two blurry thumbs up!

Vodka lacks the characteristics to radically differentiate one brand from the next. Burnett's is inexpensive and smooth, and thus often recommended by liquor critics. They produce the standard flavors to retail at the same price as the neutral spirit and there is nothing wrong with any of them. I occassionally drink Burnett's as a sleep aid.

What a wonderful value for a vodka! so smooth, you can taste the alcohol, but it doesn't hurt going down. I bought a 1.75ml for $23, which is good amount, for sure. Most definately recommend, I've had the goose (good stuff) but for your everyday stuff, this is more than adequate!

For the price you cannot beat Burnett's. Very clean and smooth. great for your daily vodka drinking. I bought a 1.75 of Shmirnoff's once and it froze in the freezer before I even opened it. Switched to Burnett's and could not have been happier.

Better than Skyy and certainly the antiseptic Absolut and Smirnoff. On par with Tino's. Not better than Grey Goose or Skyy90, But at better than 1/3 the price tag of these, I know what I'll buy *most* of the time (unless I'm trying to impress friends, but even still, refilling the bottles with Burnett's might fool some!) Drinkable straight and great in mixes. Reasonably smooth and no overwhelming astringent quality of other cheap vodkas. In summary, Burnett's is IN-expensive, but not cheap!

My friends and I have conducted two seperate blind taste tests of Burnett's vs Skyy, mixing straight martinis (no vermouth), and Burnett's was favored by 12 out of 12 people.
Enough said, buy it.

I see all of these great reviews that still only give it 4 stars and I don't get it. This is possibly the best vodka there is, not just for your money. Whenever I have the money for something more top shelf, I don't even bother because I know I can get my trusty Burnett's for 10 bucks a liter. Me and my mate drank a bottle each to ourselves over the course of a night and barely had a hangover the next morning. 4 beers gives me a worse hangover. It goes down smooth, the selection of flavors is quite nice, and it's perfect for mixers AND straight shots. 5 stars for sure

Don't let the low price and the position at the bottom of the shelf fool you. Burnett's vodka is top shelf in my book and I am still wondering why it is so inexpensive

Burnetts is an excellent choice for popular mixed drinks, like Summer Brew. I expect that Burnetts will begin showing up in finer establishments nationwide.

This vodka has many rave reviews on it and is distilled 4 times and is so smooth and my number one vodka for mixing and if im on a budget. It is a very well made vodka and is around 10-11 dollars for a ltr. Not a ultra premium but is the best premium vodka for your money and taste.

A very solid Vodka for the money. There is some truly nasty cheap vodka out there, so you do have to be careful. Nothing extremely fancy about this brand, just a good vodka. Like in my rating of Smirnoff, this tastes pretty much like nothing, which is really what I prefer from a Vodka. Most importantly, it does well in either mixed drinks or in shots, with it going down nice and smooth and much less likely to get a bad hangover like you'd get with some of the other cheap vodkas out there. (of course in moderation you could avoid this problem with any vodka ;-) Now a note about the flavoured vodkas. I have tried Vanilla and Orange, both are fine as far as mixes go, but as far as shots go I'd suggest you stay away from the orange. Burns like hell after a few seconds. Vanilla makes good shots however. And as always, make sure it is well chilled before serving.
