Product details
Biały Bocian Vodka is a clear Polish vodka from Polmos Bielsko-Biała, bottled at 40% ABV in a 70cl bottle. It is a Polish vodka from Wielkopolska grain, made to a traditional recipe exclusively from non-GMO cereals grown in Greater Poland, with its ingredients carefully blended for a gentle character. The name translates as white stork vodka, a nod to the bird that most Poles link with their countryside. It is a versatile grain vodka for sipping ice cold with food or for mixing into long drinks.
Biały Bocian Vodka neat: tasting notes
- Nose: Clean cereal, light bread crust and a faint sweetness.
- Palate: Soft, rounded grain with a hint of vanilla and white pepper.
- Finish: Clean and fairly short, with mild warmth.
How to drink Biały Bocian Vodka
Chill the bottle to 4–6°C and serve it in a kieliszek with zakąski such as pickled cucumbers, herring, cold meats and rye bread. In Poland vodka is traditionally drunk in small measures with food, often during toasts at weddings and family celebrations. The 70cl bottle also makes it a practical choice for a winter dinner with friends.

How it compares

Biały Bocian Vodka is the everyday all-rounder of the three, and its larger 70cl bottle suits parties and family gatherings.

Po polsku
Wódka Biały Bocian nosi nazwę ptaka, bez którego trudno wyobrazić sobie polską wieś. To czysta wódka premium z Polmosu Bielsko-Biała, o mocy 40%, w butelce 0,7 l, wytwarzana według tradycyjnej receptury wyłącznie z niemodyfikowanych genetycznie zbóż z Wielkopolski. Zboże jest w niej miękkie, z nutą wanilii i białego pieprzu, a finisz czysty i dość krótki. Podaje się ją schłodzoną do 4–6°C, a z lodem, mętnym sokiem jabłkowym i szczyptą cynamonu tworzy drinka zwanego szarlotką.
