Neither of you, however, should be forgiven for that amazing
over-quoting that you have just been guilty of.

No, cold is a way to stop your tastebuds from tasting it.
So I guess cold vodka is for people who don't really like the taste of
it

I think that's cause it gives you warm feelings inside to counter the
cold outside. And vodka was made locally, so it would have been a lot
cheaper than imported drinks, if they even ever got imported at all.

> whereas things like Whiskey taste better at room temperature.


Cause you like the taste of whisky better than the taste of vodka

Actually, I can't stand whiskey. I do like vodka though. Anyway, this

Ditto.

True. I tend to forget which group I'm in when I post...
Just lucky I don't post in the wrong language
