    It doesn't really surprise me; Russians excel at two things only: aggression, and vodka. And they learned to make the latter from Poland.

    What I would like to see is how people in the US would fare answering the same questions.

    What do you think?

    Make sure you drink a lot of it and then discuss trade proposals with me. :chuckle:

    Gotta say, Absolut is good stuff, but Stolichnaya is probably better.

    Stoli is my favorite by far. Just their cheapest stuff is better than almost anything else.

    Absolut is nice; I want to try that tea flavor, it's supposed to be good.

    The Russians do three things very well: fill gulags, dominate small neighboring countries, and make vodka. :lol:

    Stoli is a ridiculous value, if I'm mixing I don't even look elsewhere.

    I would guess that the U.S. totals would be around 20%-25%.

    well, when I was in 8th grade in Mississippi, about half the class actually thought the south had won the civil war, shows the ignorance of the parents. My african-american history teacher found the results very interested. I was flabbergasted.

    For the value- Stoli is great but I think Absolut is a bit smoother. If you want the best vodka try Ketel One or Grey Goose. Wouldnt use it as a mixer (too good for that) but on the rocks or occasional shot- great stuff.

    Live from the Internet.
    That's exactly two more things than Cubans excel at :couch:

    Bah, I'm outnumbered here. I wonder where exactly did they survey? I skimmed over the article and didn't see any particular places named. "Across the country" is a pretty damn broad generalization, especially in a place like Russia. Also, generalizing a country with 140+mill of people by 1600 people is also a bit...drastic, to to say the least. Im sure that there are villages that are so far behind and so damn inbreaded that honestly think so; With that being said, I sincerely doubt they went to any major cities and stopped people on town square, and got 30%.
    Also....Absolut? Meeeeeeeeehs
