I never win!
Date of Review: Jun 3, 2000
Coldly staring at your enemy you quickly size him up. He?s of medium height, you think if he was any taller you wouldn?t be able to take him. On the surface he seems quite placid, very clear headed and smooth but that?s an illusion. I know different, I?ve encountered his type before. They never come at you right away but the fire is there, lurking under the surface.
No matter how much time you spend psyching yourself up, you?re never ready for that first punch. My brain must not remember pain well because every time I?ve faced this guy that first one surprises and knocks the breath outa me. I thought this time it would be different, but I can tell already I?m not going to make it. I?m breathing too hard, and already my vision is a little blurry, yea things aren?t going well.
I look up at my friend, I can?t believe he set this whole thing up. He smiles with an evil grin and asks?want another shot? I might already be beaten but I?m not backing down, he fills another shot glass and the battle begins again.
I?ve had some experience with Vodka, I?ve wandered the landscape sampling from the worst to the best I could afford. I?ve bought Vodka that came in a plastic bottle, with a little sign written by the liquor store owner. The sign said $8.00 for 1.75L, This Vodka is Good?Really. In my opinion they were exaggerating a little but you don?t buy that much honesty for $8.
Now I?m here today to talk about Absolut 100. This aint your momma?s vodka, she couldn?t handle this stuff and if she could she might be called Mrs. Stewart (inside joke). I?m used to the standard Absolut, for me it goes down smooth. Stick that bottle in the freezer and you won?t even know you?re drinking vodka. But with Absolut 100 you definitely know what you?re drinking, RIGHT AWAY! But once your tongue uncurls and your jaw unclenches you are in for a treat. With a sweet warmth in your belly your evening is off and running. Soon, as your cheeks get warmer and your field of focus narrows you?ll be glad you went with the 100.
Now everyone knows that Absolut is typically a very smooth vodka. Forget about it with 100, once you get over the initial shock you?ll realize that hidden under that extra punch 100 still has Absolut?s characteristic silky feel and good taste. 100 is a great edition to the Absolut family, I think I?ve found a new sparring partner.
