For 2016, we asked dozens of top bartending and spirits industry professionals to tell us which bottles they love and why. Heads up: The numerical order below is not organized by importance or quality. It’s a list, not a ranking. Prices are averages and can vary state to state. 1. REYKA ($25)($25) “Reyka is what I’m putting in my vodka cocktails lately, as well as neat sips straight out the freezer. Plus,the distillery is geothermally powered! How cool is that?—Karin Stanley, co- owner of Dutch Kills and bartender at Little Branch and Suffolk Arms 2. BARR HILL ($58)($58) “A vodka that has a great taste and lends a taste profile to a cocktail.

LUKSUSOWA ($15)($15) “Dollar for dollar, this Polish potato vodka is one of the best values in spirits.”—Michael J. Neff, bar director at Holiday Cocktail Lounge SPONSORED ABSOLUT ELYX BUY NOW Only one luxury vodka is distilled in a 1921 copper column still, uses single-estate winter wheat and earned the nickname “liquid silk.” And when you buy it, you also give a week’s worth of clean water to a person in need.
