Zubrowka Bison Vodka

I found this while working in a cocktail bar and instantly fell in love. It has been my drink of choice for a year now (along with cachca). This is a serious contender as a smooth vodka, better even than belvedere or grey goose in my opinion. very easy. Try an escalator martini or the "frisky bison" cocktails. both superb. Price wise for 18 UK pounds it's a steal and i would usually expect to find a vodka of similar quality for double if not triple the price.

I like the blade of bison grass inside too nice touch.

Good as a snaps or a shot, but slow drinking. Looses taste when cooled too much.

I hate Vodka but I LIKE Zubrowka Bison Vodka.

Oh my dear! this is SUCH great stuff! first time i tried it was in Japan, where it is easy to buy. this stuff is extremely good for a low- to medium-price vodka. heck, it's extremely good compared to everything else i've had, even Luksusowa. Absolut is garbage compared to this (like drinking rubbing alcohol), and Suntory is worse than paint thinner after you've tried Zubrowka.if i could find some of this stuff in Canada, i'd compare it against Chopin and then see which i like better... until then, i'll be sad that this incredibly good vodka is so incredibly hard to find. in fact, i haven't seen it here yet.

I first encountered this vodka while I was a student in Krakow. A Swedish student introduced it to the group with apple juice as a mixer. I shortly changed to water to better enjoy the real flavor of Zubrowka Bison Vodka. It is inexpensive and delicious. I wish, now that I'm back in California, that I could get the real thing.

First tried Zubrowka Bison Vodka whilst in Bialystok, never forget how easy it is to drink. There are no harsh aftertastes, which are generally common with most spirits, and the distinctive flavour of the bison grass marries extremely well with the vodka. Once tried, never forgotten (unless you have one too many)!

Recommend putting your shot glasses in the freezer and the bottle of vodka in the fridge, this was how they drunk it in Poland.

Zubrowka Bison Vodka is a true Polish treasure. It is very unique in its flavor and taste. Mixed with apple juice in 1 to 2 ratio and served on ice with a slice of lemon (known as Tatanka in Poland) makes for the ultimate summer time drink. Very refreshing and satifying. All of the reviewers who state that it should be served chilled are wrong. Chilling Zubrowka prevents you from fully experiencing its wonderful aroma and taste. In that regard Zubrowka is like a good Brandy or Cognac.

Here in the USA it was made illegal because of its Coumarin content. Coumarin is what gives it some of its flavor, but not all of it. Coumarin has been found to be carcinogenic in large doses. The good thing about Zubrowka is that it contains only 12mg of Coumarin per bottle. The subjects who developed cancer of the liver took 200mg Coumarin tablets daily, for months at a time. Your liver will get damaged from the alcohol well before Coumarin will have any effect on it. But, in a sweeping regulation all food products containing Coumarin were outlawed.

I fell in love with Zubrowka while in Poland so much that I started to make my own since I can not buy it. I grow the grass (called Hierochloe Odorata) make the tea-like essence and flavor clear vodka with it.

The point is that Zubrowka is worth going out of your way to acquire. Indeed a very special drink. All of you Europeans who can just buy it in the store consider yourself lucky.

Zubrowka Bison Vodka is a beautiful drink I have never tasted anything as nice.

I love to have several shots of ICE COLD Zubrowka Bison Vodka in between several glasses of a fine microbrewed beer. It makes you want to go out and paint great works, write great poetry, compose fantastic works and overthrow the government .

Zubrowka Bison Vodka must be kept in a very gold store or in the deep freezer. In my experience it tastes good mixed 1:1 with apple juice (Polish women like it that way). Best suited for apperatifs and is an especially good taste to losen up a party.

Zubrowka Bison Vodka - A Polish friend took me to a Polish bar in London where we had some traditional bites with this fantastic vodka with apple juice which really complimented its flavours. I would definitely recommend trying out some Polish food alongside the vodka.
