Jimi Hendrix Electric Vodka?? Seasoned Vodka Drinkers only please!?

Question

I just tried this vodka last weekend and it was pretty good, but I'm more of a dark rum drinker so sometimes even vodka that's been 5x distilled is rough on my palette. What are your thoughts on the quality / taste compared to other comparably priced vodkas (Skyy, Belvi, Grey Goose)? Does anyone know how many times distilled this vodka is? Would you recommend it as a gift to someone who enjoys collecting unusual liquor bottles and also enjoys trying new (high quality) drinks?

Btw, this wouldn't actually BE the gift, it's just an addition to his existing gift.

Answer 1

I'm a Grey Goose drinker, I didn't care for the Jimi vodka, it's just not as smooth for me and I felt like there was an aftertaste I didn't care for.  I do think, however, it's a great addition to a gift.  Everyone has different taste so the recipient may really like it, plus it's a great bottle.

Answer 2

i am a big hendrix and vodka fan. i'd say it's better than smirnoff, but not the best vodka you can buy. if your frind is into jimi, i'd say it's worth it just for the bottle. pretty awesome. that's why i bought it (it being full of vodka didn't hurt either, lol).
