I do think a lot of it is just your head telling you that it tastes better because you wasted so much money on it, but I do also think that there is something to it.
Oh, and I like vodka. |
lol i was actually just thinking about this. if you put a swig of cheap shit, average brand X, top shelf brand Y, and like, some handcrafted, finely aged, carbon-filtered gold-plated diamond-encrusted vodka next to each other and were asked to find the highest quality swill, would most people be able to tell the difference? when you say "people have always been able to tell" is this ALL of the testers, or just a percentage?
me personally, i think i would have a hard time. it all tastes and smells like glue, it all burns going down, and it all gets me drunk quickly.
vodka is not my first choice for liquor obviously, heh. too many bad experiences in high school, i suppose.
