Product details
Wyborowa Plum 50cl is a Polish plum vodka liqueur from Wyborowa that pairs Wyborowa vodka with plums from the orchards around Szydłów, bottled at 30% ABV. Szydłów sits at the heart of a major plum-growing area in the Świętokrzyskie region, and the Śliwka carries ripe, rounded stone-fruit flavour with soft sweetness. It is a liqueur rather than a plum brandy, so it is gentle, fruity and easy to sip. It suits autumn and winter evenings and anyone who enjoys jammy dark fruit.
Wyborowa Plum tasting notes
- Nose: Ripe dark plum and a touch of marzipan.
- Palate: Rounded and jammy, with soft sweetness.
- Finish: Warm stone fruit.
The texture is fuller than the cherry or pear versions, close to a fruit compote.
How to drink Wyborowa Plum
Pour it cold, neat in a small glass, or over a few ice cubes. Pork loin stuffed with prunes, a slice of plum sheet cake or a cheeseboard with aged Gouda all pick up its stone-fruit notes. It suits the Christmas season, when dried plums turn up in kompot and cakes, and any cold evening after a hearty meal.
Cocktails with Wyborowa Plum
- Plum Tonic: pour 50 ml over ice in a highball, top with 150 ml tonic water and add a slice of fresh plum.
- Plum Hot Toddy: stir 40 ml Wyborowa Plum and 10 ml honey into 120 ml hot water in a mug, then add a cinnamon stick and a lemon slice.
How it compares
Wyborowa Cherry is tarter and brighter, while Wyborowa Pear is lighter. Plum offers the fullest, most autumnal fruit character of the range, which makes it the natural choice for colder months and richer dishes. J.A. Baczewski Ovovit is the creamier dessert alternative at 16%.
Good to know
Wyborowa links each of its fruit liqueurs to a Polish growing region, and for this one it is Szydłów. The 50cl bottle is a warm winter gift for anyone who loves plum cake. Wodka Company ships Wyborowa Plum to homes all over the UK from London.
Po polsku
Wyborowa Plum (Śliwka) łączy wódkę Wyborowa ze śliwkami z sadów wokół Szydłowa, leżącego w sercu dużego regionu uprawy śliwek. Ten likier na bazie wódki ma 30% alkoholu i pojemność 0,5 l. W aromacie czuć dojrzałą ciemną śliwkę i odrobinę marcepanu, a smak jest okrągły, konfiturowy i miękko słodki. Warto podać go zimnego w małym kieliszku lub na kilku kostkach lodu, a do jedzenia wybrać schab ze śliwkami, piernik albo placek ze śliwkami.
