Product details
Na Przełęczy Bimber Lis Gruszkowy is a Polish pear-flavoured vodka in the moonshine style, bottled at 40% ABV in a 50cl bottle. Bimber is the Polish word for home-distilled moonshine, and this commercially made bottling sets out to capture that rustic, traditional character. The brand name refers to a mountain pass (przełęcz), lis means fox and gruszkowy means 'of pears'. Expect a balanced, slightly sweet Polish pear moonshine made from natural ingredients, and a good talking point for anyone curious about village drinking traditions.
Bimber Lis Gruszkowy tasting notes
- Nose: Ripe pear and pear skin, with a soft, rustic spirit note underneath.
- Palate: Balanced and lightly sweet, with juicy pear over a rustic spirit character.
- Finish: Clean, fruity and moderately long.
How to drink Bimber Lis Gruszkowy
Serve it chilled at 4–6°C in small glasses, as the producer recommends, and sip it alongside food. It pairs with grilled oscypek and cranberry, smoked sausage or a plate of pickles, the kind of zakąski you would expect at a highland inn in southern Poland. It also suits an autumn evening when pears are in season.
Mixing with pear bimber
- Pear Bimber Fizz: 40 ml Bimber Lis Gruszkowy, 100 ml pear juice and 50 ml soda water over ice in a highball, finished with a thin slice of pear.
- Pear and Ginger Highball: 40 ml Bimber Lis Gruszkowy over ice, topped with 120 ml ginger beer and a squeeze of lemon.
How it compares
Its sister bottling Na Przełęczy Bimber Sarna Różany is softer at 37.5% ABV and floral rather than orchard-fruity. For a dry fruit spirit with an oak-matured character, Śliwowica Podbeskidzka offers plum at 50% ABV, while Siwucha shows a rustic style of vodka without any fruit sweetness.
