yup, if you don't normally drink straight vodka then starting it with 2 clients who've flown to Britain and need to be impressed just has disaster written all over it
Someone will call a potogowie. If you're looking for good volume, good taste and value grab some Parliament.

Do not buy Chase. It's as rough as a badger's arse. However your Estonian guests will be far too polite to cast aspersions. Even if they're retching, such things 'aren't done.'
This is a bit of a minority opinion; having tried numerous I would never even consider calling chase rough. It's quaffable in the same a nice, warming whisky is. Give it to a 13 year old and it'll knock him for 6 in the same way that most any spirit will Sobieski is also surprisingly good if you ever find yourself on the continent, it's cheap too. They run a marketing campaign around not needing to spend a fortune for a quality vodka. I'm fortunate enough to have several friendly Polish colleagues that drive home now and then so can pick me up the odd bottle. Buying it even from places like drink supermarket in the UK attracts the usual 'not available in the UK' tax.
Some good tips here from a previous thread. I love chilled vodka.

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.
