Smirnoff Vodka 80 Proof

"Has traces of cereal and alcohol on the nose and is a little richer on the palate than the 75 proof version, but still bears the brand's hallmarks of purity, smoothness, and lightness. So does the Blue Label, although as one would expect, it does have some alcohol burn when drunk neat. It is, however, a lot less agressive than that of many other brands bottled at 80 proof."
