Crater Lake Vodka, not widely available, but the best I have ever tasted. Filtered 10 times vs 1-3 times for most vodkas. http://www.bendistillery.com/clv.htm
Polish vodka. Almost any brand is better than the best of Russian vodka. I don't drink vodka any more, so I don't know the brands of Polish vodka that well any more too, but Belveder sounds like one of them.
LOL... Stoli and Skyy is the lowest Vodka you can get at a bar... you guys have to start making more money and drink some better vodkas... Ask a bartender... they'll tell you they're the cheapest vodkas a regular bar will carry. Kettle One, Grey Goose and above are the better ones. But I love Vodkas too... Favorite hard liquor because it doesn't stink your breath. Kamikaze on the Rocks ROCKS... *Vodka w/ Lime*
Grey Goose is for Babies. plus its made by those cowards, the French. So far the best ones (and I am an AVID vodka drinker) are: 1. Kremlevskaya 2. Kiev Vodka (very rare to find - very smooth yet vodka like) 3. Ketle One 4. Inferno (Canadian Vodka with peppers - this is for the peppered vodka fans) 5. Finlandia The worst ones (that I've tried) 1. Gordon Vodka 2. Privet Vodka 3. Cranberry Finlandia 4. Svedka 5. Georgi

personal favorites, Kettle One which has been mentioned several times, and Absolut, which surprisingly has not been mentioned. I can't stand Stoli. Grey Goose to me has a weird sort of licorice taste. Gordons, which is cheap, and nothing I could drink straight surprisingly came in first in a NY Times blind taste test a while back. OK for Bloody Marys (anything is). Smirnoff straight? Horrible. And the Smirnoff Blue? The guy had to be kidding. Even in a Bloody Mary it would be horrible. Which is saying a lot. Tastes like Everclear... The Polish vodkas are good...agreed. Peace, RS
