Best Vodka of the Month Clubs

When you join Flaviar, the curated experience starts at sign-up. The user-friendly interface guides you through a personalized setup of your ideal spirits club, beginning with your payment preference. You can choose from three different memberships: $60 for one item shipped monthly, $110 for two items shipped anytime in the course of three months, and $315 for eight items shipped anytime in the course of 12 months. From there, you'll be asked to select your favorite spirits and to indicate a few of your favorite brands before finalizing your purchase.

All shipments include your choice of a full-size bottle or a Tasting Box that includes 1.5-ounce samples from a trio of different spirits. Members can also purchase bottles, accessories, and more directly from Flaviar. Shipping is free for all subscriptions and any individual orders over $60.

While perhaps best known for its whiskey subscriptions, Taster’s Club covers nine different drink categories, including a monthly club for vodka lovers. They offer a monthly membership at $44.99 or you can make one-time payments for 3, 6, and 12 months delivery options. You can rest easy knowing that you’ll be able to cancel at any time during your membership (or, if you only intend to do a specific number of shipments, you can just plan to cancel accordingly).

Part of the hook here is the element of surprise, which is why Taster’s Club doesn’t preview its upcoming bottles. If you like that kind of spontaneity, then this is the subscription for you. Shipments are available to all states except Alaska, Hawaii, Kentucky, Mississippi, and Utah.

In Holiday, Florida (located north of the Tampa Bay area), Universal Fine Wine & Spirits is an everyday local liquor store, except that it had the foresight to provide its customers far and wide with multiple monthly subscription experiences. On the vodka front, Universal offers a 12-month club available in all 48 contiguous states at a flat rate of $800 (shorter versions are available as well). The price includes shipping, which is a huge bonus because alcohol shipping can be quite costly.

Spirited Gifts’ Vodka Trilogy Club is a short-term subscription that delivers one hand-selected, standard-sized bottle each month over a three-month period. The vodkas primarily come from France, Poland, Russia, and the United States. The selections change based on availability, but the price remains stable at a flat rate of $199, which includes all three bottles, shipping, taxes, service fees, and a personalized gift note.

If you want to take your gift to the next level, opt to add glassware (shot glasses, mini Mason jars, or copper mugs) as well as coasters, a variety of cigar kits, or a curated gift basket. These add-ons range from $25 to $75, and bottle engraving is available upon request. The only downside is that Spirited Gifts ships to just 29 states because of state liquor laws.

If you’re looking to explore your love of vodka through craft cocktails and build your home bar in the process, Cocktail Courier is your best bet. This monthly club brings you all the ingredients necessary to make between two and eight servings of each month’s featured cocktail. Recipes are all designed by industry experts, so you can count on every box to be just as exciting as the last.

When you sign up for a Cocktail Courier membership, you’ll be prompted to enter your spirits preferences, and your boxes will be based on those settings. You can skip a delivery or cancel at any time without penalty, and if there’s a drink you think you won’t be wild about, you can swap it for another. The standard box (spirit minis and mixers) costs $49.99, and if you decide to either use your own spirits (with or without alcohol), you can still partake by ordering the mixers-only box for $29.99 per shipment. Shipping is included on all subscription boxes, and you can also shop for additional supplies such as barware, gifts, and more boxes.
