Product details
Żołądkowa De Luxe is a clear, unflavoured Polish vodka from the makers of Żołądkowa Gorzka, bottled at 40% ABV in a 70cl bottle. The family name usually belongs to amber, herbal liqueurs, but De Luxe is a neutral vodka with a mild, delicate aroma and no added herbs or spices. The bottle is shaped to sit comfortably in the hand when pouring. It suits drinkers who want a clean, everyday clear vodka for chilled shots at the table and for mixed drinks where the other ingredients should lead.
What Żołądkowa De Luxe tastes like
- Nose: Clean and light, with a faint cereal note and a touch of white pepper.
- Palate: Neutral and soft, with a subtle sweetness and a crisp texture.
- Finish: Short, dry and clean, with gentle warmth.
How to drink Żołądkowa De Luxe
Keep the bottle in the freezer and pour small measures into chilled glasses. Like most unflavoured Polish vodka, it is at its best as a vodka for zakąski, the cold snacks served between toasts: pickled cucumbers, herring in oil, rye bread with smalec and cold cuts. It is a classic bottle for name days, weddings and family celebrations, where each glass comes with a bite to eat.

De Luxe is the only clear vodka among the Żołądkowa bottles: Żołądkowa Gorzka Traditional is amber, sweetened and herbal at 34%, while De Luxe is dry and neutral at 40%. Among the other clear vodkas we sell, Żubrówka Black is a wheat vodka with a charcoal-filtered, lightly creamy style, a useful comparison if you want a little more character.
