I was going to get all snotty about this article in Vanity where the reviewer tries to test 11 premium vodkas in one evening and manages six. But then the idea of "Premium Vodka" stumped me. I think it comes down to vodka they'll charge you more than 30 EUROs a bottle for. I'm not much of a vodka drinker but I believe the main things you need to have for vodka are pure alcohol and water, and premium vodkas are exactly that, so how can they cost so much?
Marketing and gullible posers must be the answer.
Vodka comes in three varieties surely:
1) Due to all the impurities it will definitely give you a hangover
2) Some impurities and a possibly hangover
3) No impurities and a hangover only if you really over do it.
After that it's a matter of bottle design as to whether you buy it or not. So if you're paying more than the price of a bottle of Absolut you are being ripped off.

Ikon True Russian Vodka is as premium as it gets for vodka @ 1/2 the price because it really is what's inside that counts.
