Belvedere set out to make this expression deliberately robust: savoury, a little spicy, with a long finish and a pronounced aroma. Its home region is \u003cem lang=\"pl\"\u003ewojewództwo lubuskie\u003c\/em\u003e, and the bottle suits anyone who wants a Polish vodka with real weight and earthiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSmogóry Forest tasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark rye bread, damp earth and a woody, forest-floor note.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full-bodied and savoury, with black pepper and toasted grain over a faint honeyed sweetness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long, warming and spicy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe texture is broad and slightly oily, so it clings to the glass when swirled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to drink Belvedere Smogóry Forest\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePour it lightly chilled into a tulip glass and give it a minute to open before sipping.

A cold autumn evening, or a supper after a day of mushroom picking, shows it at its best.

Belvedere Vodka Organic, the blended expression, is gentler still, with soft vanilla instead of forest-floor depth. For another single-estate rye, Wyborowa Exquisite is nuttier and rounder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePolmos Żyrardów makes all Belvedere vodkas, and Smogóry Forest is one of two single-estate releases in the brand's range.
