      They should have the same amount of calories, given they have the same ABV.

        According to whomever figured out the caloric count, there’s something in the whiskey that gives an extra 20 calories per shot. The only alcohol that contains more alcohol for less calories than vodka is grain alcohol, and I don’t need to be that drunk

      You do realize the calories come from the alcohol, right?

        In the vodka, yeah. According to the FDA/ATF whomever does the caloric testing, Vodka has fewer calories than any other alcohol, for the amount of alcohol, with the exception of Everclear, and other almost pure alcohols. I also don’t need to be that drunk.

          The difference in calories between vodka and whiskey is barely enough to even bother acknowledging. According to the data that you are referencing it’s 100 calories to a shot of vodka and 110 calories to a shot of whiskey.

          And that’s assuming they’re both the same proof. I’ve had plenty of whiskeys that are lower proof than vodka and I’ve encountered vodkas that are so alcoholic that you can get drunk just sniffing them.
