Żubrówka

About

Żubrówka is a Polish national pride, with a history dating back to the 15th century when Polish nobility flavored their booze with bison grass. This unique vodka is aromatized with bison grass, a plant that grows wild in north-eastern Poland, particularly in the Białowieża Forest, giving it a strong forest aroma. Award-winning and an export commodity, Żubrówka brings a taste of traditional Polish craftsmanship and heritage to the diaspora. Its distinctive flavor, derived from the coumarin in bison grass, makes it a recognizable and beloved spirit, especially its signature Liqueur.
