    Mostly sold at Trader Joe's. I buy it because it's the most affordable. Light in taste, and good with juices.

    A nice tasting vodka I've tried, but a little harsh on the throat at times.

    Ok, this is actually my first purchase of a flavored vodka. I've never really appreciated the whole flavor trend in general, like flavored beers and flavored coffees and flavored condoms. But hey if she likes a little cookies with her cream then maybe I'm a convert. Now, back to the booze. I'm writing this review while partaking in formentioned liquor. It is blueberry flavored. I do love a good blueberry pie. Nuff said. When I first started drinking tasting good seemed to be the last thing on a distiller's mind. So I'd wash down my Jack with some Bud. Anything that tasted good was a device used to inebriate the ladies. Back to business. I'mn drinking it with some crangrape. So now we have the conjoining of bueberry, cranberry and grape berry. Not too shabby. I can't at this point rate the hangover if there might be one. I'll interject tomorrow. Also I just noticed that there's a movie with Cameron Diaz on right now that's a little distracting. She's a C. This vodka is ok. The best vod... Read more

    Has some burn. Don't do shots with it. It's a great vodka to be mixed. It's my 1st choice in vodka's when im on a really low budget. No hangovers from it except once but I over did it. I enjoy the raspberry flavor one. At $11.99 for a 1.5 liters its one of the best deals out there.

    I got a bottle of the cherry flavored after reading the reviews. Cut up a fresh lime took off the peels and put them in the bottle. Tastes fine one oz that and one oz pineapple orange juice. no reason to get anything more expensive for mixed drinks. It is only near the skol because of the price not the taste. Update: So I went ahead and got a BIG bottle of this unflavored. I have to mix my vodka with something, and I think freshly squeezed limes are the best for this. I squeezed out 2 limes in a 1/5th bottle and filled it up with the regular vodka. Makes it taste great for a flavored vodka ( i mean it's vodka, ain't gonna taste like a cloud no matter what you do with it). for shots I always take a double shot glass, fill 1/2 with liquor, and the other 1/2 with whatever...sprite, orange juice, whatever you like. For those look at this review and are confused by the mix of one star, and 5 star reviews this is the meat and potatoes: this vodka costs 13 dollars for a 1/2 gallon w... Read more

    Great vodka for the Price. Just as good as Skyy but half the price. I used to drink skyy now all I buy is Burnett's. It take's a lot for me to get a hangover so the hangover's everyone is talking about doesn't bother me. Can't beat it!!!

    Worth getting a "cheap booze hangover" the next day because it's so cheap ($13.99 1.75L). After consuming a lot of this stuff and before you go to bed, drink a lot of water. This dilutes the alcohol and lessens the hangover.

    It is the worst thing i have ever tasted, and no i didn't have it just once. I drank the whole bottle and had to suffer through the whole thing. burnett's should lose their distilling license and who ever thinks its the best should never be listened to..

    Burnett's grape flavored vodka...I was trying to recreate a "fun dip" shot, and found that it tasted like grape flavored chemical. Dear Burnett's, I tried to inform you but there is not contact info on your website!

    Have been a Skyy drinker for years until a friend turned me onto Burnett's. Great taste, it goes down smooth and mixes with whatever you like without any odd after taste. For the price it can't be beat. You can have your so called top shelf. Burnett's is top shelf for me.

    Great going down, BUT... the cheap booze hangover is hellish. We cycled a couple of bottles through our home bar, then cried uncle. No more Burnett's at our house.

    Awful stuff, what is it doing here, especially with a such a high score? Just had unflavored straight, and can't even give it one star, but have to, I guess, stay away.

    Burnett's has changed my life. Before i never drank alcohol and never drank soda. Now....with a nice cherry vodka and diet coke....I DRINK BOTH. The smoothest of smooth....once you pick the bottle up, you don't want to put it down.

    This is the best value for Vodka you can get. After putting it to the test against Ketle One and Grey Goose, this had the smoothest finish. Pretty looking bottles and advertising is what you're paying for when you buy those "premium" vodkas, not because they're necessarily the best.

    Burnett's has taken my enjoyment of vodka by storm. I was convinced that Skyy was the top of the affordable premium vodkas (Goose, Sky, Stolti, ect...), but Burnett's quickly changed my mind. Hangover rating has to be at the very lowest end of the scale and enjoyment of taste, well almost lack of heavy taste that is, and mix-ability are at the top of the scale. On the rocks, or mixed, it should truly be on the top shelf.

    Bought a 750ml for $6.99; citrus. Nice, cannot beat the price and quality combo. Rivals Svedka at half the price.

    Incredible value. Almost as good as brands 3 times the price. It's $10 for a fifth here. I like to make screwdrivers with the watermelon flavor. The most popular brands in my area are Burnett's and HRD (Hood River Distilleries, OR brand) and this is leagues above HRD. Plus, HRD comes in plastic bottles!

    smooth and clean, no bite that could have teenagers choking and hiding their latent homosexuality. A slightly sweet hint, for a vodka. great for mixing or neat, a all around spirit for any application. two blurry thumbs up!

    Vodka lacks the characteristics to radically differentiate one brand from the next. Burnett's is inexpensive and smooth, and thus often recommended by liquor critics. They produce the standard flavors to retail at the same price as the neutral spirit and there is nothing wrong with any of them. I occassionally drink Burnett's as a sleep aid.

    What a wonderful value for a vodka! so smooth, you can taste the alcohol, but it doesn't hurt going down. I bought a 1.75ml for $23, which is good amount, for sure. Most definately recommend, I've had the goose (good stuff) but for your everyday stuff, this is more than adequate!

    For the price you cannot beat Burnett's. Very clean and smooth. great for your daily vodka drinking. I bought a 1.75 of Shmirnoff's once and it froze in the freezer before I even opened it. Switched to Burnett's and could not have been happier.

    Better than Skyy and certainly the antiseptic Absolut and Smirnoff. On par with Tino's. Not better than Grey Goose or Skyy90, But at better than 1/3 the price tag of these, I know what I'll buy *most* of the time (unless I'm trying to impress friends, but even still, refilling the bottles with Burnett's might fool some!) Drinkable straight and great in mixes. Reasonably smooth and no overwhelming astringent quality of other cheap vodkas. In summary, Burnett's is IN-expensive, but not cheap!

    My friends and I have conducted two seperate blind taste tests of Burnett's vs Skyy, mixing straight martinis (no vermouth), and Burnett's was favored by 12 out of 12 people. Enough said, buy it.

    I see all of these great reviews that still only give it 4 stars and I don't get it. This is possibly the best vodka there is, not just for your money. Whenever I have the money for something more top shelf, I don't even bother because I know I can get my trusty Burnett's for 10 bucks a liter. Me and my mate drank a bottle each to ourselves over the course of a night and barely had a hangover the next morning. 4 beers gives me a worse hangover. It goes down smooth, the selection of flavors is quite nice, and it's perfect for mixers AND straight shots. 5 stars for sure

    Don't let the low price and the position at the bottom of the shelf fool you. Burnett's vodka is top shelf in my book and I am still wondering why it is so inexpensive

    Burnetts is an excellent choice for popular mixed drinks, like Summer Brew. I expect that Burnetts will begin showing up in finer establishments nationwide.

    This vodka has many rave reviews on it and is distilled 4 times and is so smooth and my number one vodka for mixing and if im on a budget. It is a very well made vodka and is around 10-11 dollars for a ltr. Not a ultra premium but is the best premium vodka for your money and taste.

    A very solid Vodka for the money. There is some truly nasty cheap vodka out there, so you do have to be careful. Nothing extremely fancy about this brand, just a good vodka. Like in my rating of Smirnoff, this tastes pretty much like nothing, which is really what I prefer from a Vodka. Most importantly, it does well in either mixed drinks or in shots, with it going down nice and smooth and much less likely to get a bad hangover like you'd get with some of the other cheap vodkas out there. (of course in moderation you could avoid this problem with any vodka ;-) Now a note about the flavoured vodkas. I have tried Vanilla and Orange, both are fine as far as mixes go, but as far as shots go I'd suggest you stay away from the orange. Burns like hell after a few seconds. Vanilla makes good shots however. And as always, make sure it is well chilled before serving.
