Overview

Why do people buy top shelf liquor?

Try this experiment at your next party: Buy a few vodkas (or champagne or wine) from a few different price tiers. Conduct a blind taste test. See if your friends can correctly rank the different vodkas according to their respective prices.  

Chances are they will tell you they can, but in reality they probably cannot.

So, why is there such a thing as top shelf liquor - if it doesn't pass the scrutiny of a simple taste test.  

There lies the power of branding!
