Product details
Dębowa Polska Black Boar is a Polish flavoured vodka with notes of coffee, caramel and almond, bottled at 40% ABV in a 70cl bottle. In Poland it is sold as Czarny Dzik, the black wild boar, and it belongs to Dębowa's nature-inspired collection alongside the Golden Owl and Red Fox. Made with natural ingredients, it is the darkest and most dessert-like of the three. This Polish coffee and caramel vodka is built for slow sipping after a meal, and it also stands in nicely wherever a recipe calls for a coffee spirit.
Black Boar tasting notes
- Nose: Roasted coffee beans, burnt sugar and toasted almond.
- Palate: Smooth and medium-sweet, with espresso and caramel over a clean vodka base and a marzipan note in the middle.
- Finish: Dry and nutty, with a lingering mocha bitterness.
The colour is a deep, glossy brown, closer to a coffee liqueur than to a clear vodka.
How to drink Dębowa Black Boar
Chill the bottle to 4–6°C and serve it in a small tumbler, neat or over a couple of ice cubes. It works after dinner with dark chocolate, sernik or a bowl of walnuts, and a measure poured over vanilla ice cream turns into a quick affogato-style dessert for adults. It also fits a slow Sunday afternoon of coffee and cake with friends.
Black Boar cocktails
- Black Boar Espresso Martini: 50 ml Black Boar, 30 ml freshly brewed espresso and 10 ml sugar syrup, shaken with ice and strained into a chilled coupe.
- Boar White Russian: 40 ml Black Boar and 30 ml single cream over ice in a rocks glass, stirred gently.
How it compares
Where Dębowa Golden Owl uses honey and cognac for a golden, mellow sweetness, Black Boar goes darker with coffee and caramel. Dębowa Red Fox, at the same 40% ABV, is fruit-driven and much brighter, and the 20% Gold Raspberry is a sweet liqueur rather than a vodka. Of the four, Black Boar is the natural after-dinner choice.
Good to know
Dębowa is a Polish vodka brand whose name means 'oaken', and its nature collection gives each flavour its own animal label. Wodka Company ships Dębowa Black Boar 70cl from London to anywhere in the UK, and anyone who knows it as Czarny Dzik vodka from Polish shops will recognise the bottle.
Po polsku
Dębowa Polska Black Boar, po polsku Czarny Dzik, to wódka smakowa o mocy 40% w butelce 0,7 l, przygotowana z naturalnych składników. W kieliszku ma ciemnobrązowy kolor, a w smaku dominują palona kawa i karmel, z marcepanowym migdałem w tle. Finisz jest wytrawny i orzechowy, z lekką goryczką mokki. Spośród trzech butelek z kolekcji Dębowej inspirowanej naturą ta jest najciemniejsza i najbardziej deserowa. Warto podawać ją schłodzoną do 4–6°C, czystą lub z lodem, na przykład do gorzkiej czekolady.
Frequently asked questions
Is Dębowa Black Boar a coffee liqueur?
No. Dębowa Black Boar is a flavoured vodka rather than a liqueur, so it is drier and less syrupy than typical coffee liqueurs. Coffee leads the flavour, with caramel and almond behind it, on a clean vodka base.
What does 'Czarny Dzik' mean on Dębowa Black Boar?
Czarny Dzik is Polish for 'black wild boar', the animal that gives Dębowa Black Boar its English name. The dark name matches the deep brown colour and roasted coffee-and-caramel taste of this flavoured vodka.
What can I mix with Dębowa Black Boar?
Dębowa Black Boar works naturally with coffee and cream. For a White Russian-style drink, stir 40 ml over ice with 40 ml cold-brew coffee and finish with a splash of single cream; cola with a twist of orange is a simpler long drink.
