I've got 2 Estonian clients coming for a meeting and I've been told off the record that their preferred drink is vodka over ice cubes.

Me personally I thought drinking vodka was for alcoholics it tastes like lighter fluid. Never head it without some form of mixing (usually Red Bull).

However, I would appreciate if anyone who drinks vodka neat, could tell me what connoisseurs would consider the best bottle on the market?

OP here, thanks for everyone's advice , I went with Oval 42 as it was an Austrian brand (so no regional rivalry issues) and had some good reviews over various sites.

There was 3 Estonians who turned up and they all loved it, first time they'd heard of this brand and like some other posters had mentioned, they said the key to a good vodka is the number of times it is filtered and were very impressed with this post distilled one.
