I want to get a a 750ml bottle for after prom and I'd like it to be some kind of respectable alcohol but not too expensive. I was thinking something like Grey Goose, or Crown Royal. I want to make sure my date will like it too so i think like brandy or cognac is out. Suggestions?

In my experience, don't get grey goose- too expensive for its quality. Also, don't get absolut- you'd probably vomit from its syrupy taste-it seems to only go well in mixed drinks. Go with belvedere, three olives or even skyy. People knock skyy but its not as expensive, the price definitely fits its quality, and underage girls seem to think skyy is some godly vodka or something.

finlandia, svedka... but then again if you need to ask us what kind of classy vodka then you really wont be able to notice a quality difference, might as well spend $15 and get a full handle of barnetts. shits good, and theres alot of it. and if youre not mixing get some flavored vodka. bitches love flavored vodka.

I drink the 20 year old port that they make which is more expensive but this is the most delicious after dinner drink you could possibly buy.

usually you go to dinner before prom so I thought he would want a classy drink to get the lady loose instead of hammered and arrested at the front door

elaborate please

And yes, 151 is fucking terrible. I always feel like I'm drinking gasoline when I have it. If you want something with a higher proof, go with Everclear, it's much less godawful when mixed.

Not a big fan of Skyy, personally. The aftertaste makes me gag.

skyy is by far more preferable than grey goose for how much a bottle is...its not by any means any top shelf shit, but at least it doesnt cost a fortune for some mid level vodka
