It's just alchemy disguised as a science. -

Ah that makes sense. Gotta add it to my long list of things I should watch

I thought vodka was made with potatoes.

Potatoes are a grain? Actually where do potatoes come from? I know they can come from other potatoes, but of course there must be a grain.
These are the hard questions

It can be made with either! I think most vodka you get (at least in the US) is made with grain, but there are distillers who specifically make potato vodka, too.

Not much to it, The starch is essentially just a type of complex carbohydrate, and potatoes are known to carry them in abundance. So while a potato is still technically a vegetable, it's often referred to as a starch or starchy vegetable because of how much starch it contains.

Anything containing sugar can be turned into alcohol. Some easier than others.

Wonder how that'd affect the sales. Could either become local flop or a worldwide hit.

Processes. Vodka is just neutral spirits. Think of what makes whisky whisky.

Vodka is pretty much just ethanol. It doesn't have (and isn't supposed to have) any taste or smell.
It can be made with pretty much everything.
