Poland's richly fertile soil yields some of the finest potatoes in the world. And in the early 17th century Poland turned to its bountiful potato crop to produce the best-tasting, smoothest and richest vodka of all. By the 18th century the wealthier noble families of Poland regarded their potato vodka, Luksusova (meaning luxury), in the same manner that the French regard a great Burgundy. But it was the Potockis, the most prominent family in the vodka trade, who actually began producing Luksusova commercially. Luksusova, the Polish word for "luxury, has a superior taste that is a result of its potato-base. Most domestic vodkas are distilled from corn, most imported vodkas from rye. But Luksusova is painstakingly made from Polands select potato crop grown exclusively in the Baltic coast region of North Poland.
Crystal clear in colour. The bouquet shows clean, mellow aromas of pastry dough and sweet cream with a silky dry-yet-fruity medium body with very delicate dried fruit, custard, and spice notes and a long, creamy, and gently warming pepper and mineral finish. Excellent smoothness, balance, and vibrancy.
