By definition, it is a tasteless, odorless distilled spirit. It can be made from grains or even from potatoes, like everyone thinks. Yes, there are still a few vodkas out there made from potatoes, such as Monopolowa vodka, one of the more inexpensive potato varieties. The base ingredient ferments and is then distilled so that the alcohol converts to steam and then condenses. It is usually distilled several times and then combined with water to bring it to 80 proof (40% alcohol by volume). It is not aged in barrels.
