VODKA WARS

Rachmaninoff Triple Distilled Vodka 70cl, £9.99, Lidl THIS has a neutral nose, bar the fiery sensation, as you might expect. it feels a bit quick and dirty on its own, but once some tonic is added it works pretty well. 5/10

Smirnoff Red Label Vodka 70cl, £14.50, Tesco THERE is a more peppery smell compared with the other red label vodka. And on the palate it’s definitely smoother, with an almost creamy texture. 8/10
