Cupcake vodka. I dunno. I really dunno. It's not like cupcake is a flavour. Devil's Food Cake vodka is going to taste like fudgy chocolate, I guess. What will chiffon taste like? Frosting? Also not a flavour.

From the description there, it sounds like the original Cupcake Vodka isn't flavoured, just super-smooth with a decadent mouth feel - I don't really get what that means but I'd be interested in trying it. The 70-proof flavours I don't know about, though the chocolate infused vodkas I've had in the past were delicious.
Eta: the idea of premium vodka being made in Livermore is odd to me.

It seems there's a "subtle tree fruit and citrus" flavour to the original, from the web site. Don't know if that's inherent in the vodka itself, or what it has to do with cupcakes.

I think Cupcake is just the name of the winery that makes it?

Tree fruit? That's cryptic.

hwæt
If gin were invented today, would it still be called gin, or would it be just another flavored vodka?

They say they want to achieve the mouth feel of cupcakes. Frosting seems to be vanilla vodka, original has tree fruit (uhuh), Devil's Food Cake is dark chocolate, and chiffon is lemony. I'm not sure what this mouth feel is to achieve.
But I am also a heathen.
I should take a wine tasting class, so I can start being pretentious. Or a tequila tasting class, so I can have some fun.

Somehow I think "vodka that tastes like chewing on a Christmas tree" would be hard to sell.
