Carlos Mendez VIPsAllowed — Decent everyday vodka
7/10

A reliable pour that won't blow your mind but does the job. The nose has Fresh and citrusy with clean wheat — the review is accurate there. The palate gives you Crisp and silky with a pleasant citrus brightness, which is fine but a bit safe. I keep reaching for other bottles when I want to sip neat, but for cocktails it's hard to complain. The finish is clean.

10/10

As someone who's been appreciating quality vodka for years, this is among the finest I've encountered at this price point. On the nose I get white pepper — let it warm slightly in the glass and the aromas open up. The palate is where it really shines: Crisp and silky with a pleasant citrus brightness with beautiful texture. Nolet Distillery / Diageo has clearly mastered their craft.

Daniel Torres VIPsAllowed — A standout bottle
10/10

Tried this side by side with several competitors at a tasting and it stands head and shoulders above them. The nose gives you white pepper — it's immediately apparent this is quality. Then the palate opens up with Crisp and silky with a pleasant citrus brightness and the wheat character shines through. The finish is clean and lingering. I've already ordered another bottle. Excellent work from Nolet Distillery / Diageo.
