So far, the reviewers have been glowing about drinking it.

[–] [email protected] 66 points 1 month ago (1 children)

How it tastes?

Not great, not terrible.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Its been measured at 3.6% ABV

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

But this equipment only measures up to 3.6% ABV!

We got the high-range boozimeter from the safe, but it burned out instantly.

Probably got a bad one the. Mother Russia make great Potato

Isn't most vodka around 40% abv?

Edit: Found their website https://www.atomikvodka.com/

Buy our unique 5x distilled Apple Spirit (42% ABV) and the First Release of our new Apple Brandy (42% ABV) aged in Ukrainian oak

Looks like 42% ABV

Ah that makes sense. Gotta add it to my long list of things I should watch

[–] [email protected] 45 points 1 month ago (2 children)

interesting to note that the process of distillation removes radioactive particles from the product, making it safe to drink

Unless there's tritium in it (which is unlikely, half-life is too short)

There could also be ^14^C, a beta emitter with a half life of 5730 years.

Too bad the boar doesn't have extra legs.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Wonder how that'd affect the sales. Could either become local flop or a worldwide hit.

It's true what they say: Russians and vodka don't mix. It's like eating a spoonful of Drano; sure, it'll clean you out, but it'll leave you hollow inside.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

this should've been an energy drink, I've been saying dor years how Monster tastes like radiation or electricity

Granted Atomik is a fire name for a radiation vodka though, so they got me beat in that department

I thought vodka was made with potatoes.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Anything containing sugar can be turned into alcohol. Some easier than others.

It can be made with either! I think most vodka you get (at least in the US) is made with grain, but there are distillers who specifically make potato vodka, too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Potatoes are a grain? Actually where do potatoes come from? I know they can come from other potatoes, but of course there must be a grain.

These are the hard questions

I don’t want to go on a wikipedia hunt right now, for potato starch, but if you could educate me further, I would appreciate it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Not much to it, The starch is essentially just a type of complex carbohydrate, and potatoes are known to carry them in abundance. So while a potato is still technically a vegetable, it's often referred to as a starch or starchy vegetable because of how much starch it contains.

Make a Molotov cocktail outta that stuff and you could level Moscow! Running away fast enough is a problem.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Why do I really want to drink it? The distillation removes any radioactive particles making it safe to drink. And it just seems so fucking metal??

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Is it easy to find in the dark?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Do the farmers have to wear hazmat suits?

Tastes like metal
