What is you favorite Polish Vodka?

Absolwent and wyborowa are greate

I hate vodka, I drink only beer or wine

I think PL wine will become more popular. I hear that there thy're growing more grapes than usual.

We were surprised - didn't really expect much of a difference if any. Of course (for anyone) another factor is a matter of how much one consumes!

Hmmm.... it's the weekend now - might have to revisit this experiment.

Zubrowka, without a doubt.

And? Did you come up with the same result?

Quote: FISZ 'And? Did you come up with the same result?'

Yes indeed. I have to admit, after comparing the two, the US version is not pleasant to have--reminds me of cologne by comparison. It's hard to take now.

In an off topic comment, I did have some Kilbeggan Irish whiskey recently (bought in advance of St. Patrick's day--it was on sale and hadn't tried it). It was pretty good, worth it for the good price, but isn't considered one of the best. It will be held in stasis until March 17!

I agree with that the US version was unpleasant, I'd drink something else.

No one mentioned Belvedere?

That's because it's for tourists and people who don't know any better.

Bols


Ale Bimber best !!!

Bols.....eh... not bad.

Bols ain't Polish

Ach polish ..... tylko widzialem wodka :)

polish to slaska , sobieski , i cracovia !

but a good souvenir is bimber !

I like all Debowa (oak) or zoladkowa gorzka

ANY muhahahaha ... i drink vodka like it comes out of the tap anyways :D

Finlandia - the vodka of choice for Poles !

You can make wisniowka homemade very easily....
All you need is 9% alcohol, sour cherries and sugar!!

Soak the cherries in alcohol for a couple of weeks, remove alcohol and put to one side pour sugar onto cherries to extract as much juice as possible.
Pour off juice and mix with original alcohol...

This is a very easy way to make wisniowka!

I vaguely remember drinking "bimba" (is that right?) at a wedding.
WOW.
I got given a bottle to bring (smuggle) back to the Uk. I give it to unsepecting English people who dont understand vodka.
Also useful for stripping down paintwork!

Still prefer Finlandia though

I don't like any vodka. Not to be recommended.

then you are not a true Pole

And tastes awesome! I love this stuff. I have trouble finding Wisnia in the US though

I remember when I was a child going to visit one of my Uncles. He was trying to make his own vodka in the kitchen. It was so funny, there were all these copper pipes and stuff around the kitchen. He was very serious and we only saw him during our stay, if we went into the kitchen. Lol.

My Auntie, made him move it all to the garden shed. I'm not sure he was very successful with it. Why bother? Polish vodka, as I remeber was pretty lethal stuff.

DeBowa "red oak" Good stuff!!

Belvedere. Its as expensive as hell but for some reason I can tell the difference and love it.. maybe its all in my head

Bols is good too (& cheaper).

the bison pee vodka and apple juice is yummy

Wisniowka and the lemon vodka (Cytronowka??) sorry for spelling my polish is pigeon polish!!

zubrowka is my favorite. spiritus is great, but strong!!! cytrynowka is awesome!! its a lemon vodka..its delicious!!! oh and for the person who posted whats best to eat after polish drinking?!! its obvious...kabanos and pickles!!

Zubrowka !!

I got a case once from NY and my dad went nuts happy. Came over every weekend !!!!
All I drank when I was in Poland, with apple cider and peach slices. Well, I did drink other things, and didn't get that drunk !! ; )

I like the smell and taste of Zubrowka. :-) It's especially good with apple juice.
