I have been wanting to try this for a while but I never had space in my bar for it. Well, this weekend that changed. I found it on sale for $17 and took a chance on it and it is not bad. However, not bad is all that it is. It has a slight ethanol nose but very little else in the way of smell which for vodka can be a good thing. There is some burn when consumed at room temperature and none when the liquid is chilled. It mixes very well with every drink I have made with it like Martinis, Harvey Wallbangers, and Vodka Tonics. I like the bottle it has a classic saloon look to it and it has a cork top. The only real issue I have with it is that is normally $20 or so in my area and I can get several other vodkas at better prices than Dixie. If you like vodka this is a good one to have but if you are just keeping a bar stocked there are cheaper options out there. Enjoy.
