vodka

vodka is basically just a neutral spirit. build a very efficient reflux column and get 192 proof. then water it down to drinking strength and you're in the good vodka world.

if you want to do it the real way, make a potato mash, watch out for the VIOLENT ebullition which will blow potato goo all over the place, then triple distill in a pot still.

Turbo for sugar wash,

EC-1118 for others

VodkaStar is a good yeast too (but I believe it is made for a sugar wash)
