Product details
Wyborowa Lemon 50cl is a Polish lemon vodka liqueur from Wyborowa, combining spirit with juice from sour lemons and bottled at 28% ABV. Known in Polish as Cytrynówka, it is the zestiest of the Wyborowa fruit liqueurs, with juicy acidity rather than heavy sweetness. At 28% it is slightly lower in ABV than the 30% fruit flavours in the range. The aroma is fruity and refreshing, and it suits anyone who wants a bright, sharp liqueur for warm days or a citrus note after a rich meal.
Cytrynówka tasting notes
- Nose: Fresh lemon juice and zest.

How to drink Wyborowa Lemon
Chill it well and serve neat in a small glass, or long over ice with sparkling water. Seafood, fried fish and grilled chicken with herbs all suit the tangy citrus, and a slice of sernik makes a fine dessert partner. It works as an aperitif at a summer barbecue or as a refreshing pour after a heavy winter dinner.
