After Three Decades, Chopin Vodka Is Still Working To Change

A few years ago the brand lost its right to call itself wódka, as the alcohol content went down slightly. Don’t let that deter you, give it a try. Belvedere meaning “beautiful to see” is the name of the historic Presidential Palace in Warsaw, Poland. A fitting name for a premium spirit, right?Chopin 100% potato vodka is made from potatoes sourced locally in Podlasie, within 25 miles/40 km of the distillery.

One of the cheaper Polish vodkas available (I’m inclined to drink them at every opportunity before anything else) Wyborowa means “selected.” Chopin Potato Vodka is the world’s most awarded potato vodka distilled at Polmos Siedlce distillery.I’m a huge believer in Polish vodka. I’ve written consistently that if given the choice I’d take a bottle of Polish vodka over their Russian counterparts, both for the quality of the liquid and from a price comparison standpoint. The liquid offers a slightly sweeter palate contrasted by the nutty flavor and offers a full, creamy mouthfeel at odds with traditional Polish vodka’s characteristic crispness.
