And was it worth it?

The only vodka I’ve ever had that tasted good - enjoyable and not just something I tolerated for the alcohol - was a shot of buffalograss(?) flavored vodka at a polish restaurant in London.

    It's called Żubrówka, and it's flavored with bison grass

    It was delicious. Apparently can’t get it here in the states.

    One of the weirdest things about that experience was that I witnessed some anti-polish racism? Like this British guy walked in and was just savage to all of the employees. Didn’t realize hating polish people was still a thing.

    They do sell a version of it here, but it can be pretty hard to track down, it's definitely not available in my state (PA) But I've seen it in a couple stores in other states.

    I think bison grass isn't allowed to be imported to the US, so they use something else that's pretty close in flavor. For a while I think they were branding it as "Zu" but that may have changed.
