Higher price = good? :(

No.  But it tastes fine.  Your snobbishness is infuriating and often baseless.

Stoli? Sure. Vanilla vodka? No.

Besides, I'm not a snob.

I bet you could find a vanilla-flavored vodka that tastes just as fine for half the price...

Possibly.  How about vanilla heroin?

Well, damn, I guess I'll just call off my master plan, years in the making, to force everyone to drink vanilla vodka.

I want to hear more about your master plans to make everyone do what you want.

A much better value.  And tastes much better mixed with Diet Coke.

Good vodka is increasingly cheap to make. Just saying.

faintly tasting filler

And that's the pro side of the argument.

Indeed, since it's coming from somebody who does not know what champagne is.
As for vanilla coke and vodka, it's bad vodka I guess or hope, given the track record.

Is vanilla coke always available in the US?
In the UK and Japan it briefly appeared in summer then vanished again. A coca cola Japan guy told me it was just a special summer thing like cherry coke is a special winter thing.

I think so. The US has hundreds of Coke flavors.

The Larch

It is also available in Germany and Austria. I tried it when I was there and found it disgusting.
