Product Information:
Produced in one of the world’s longest operating polish distilleries that has been making vodka since 1910, Belvedere’s Master Rye Distillers draw from a 600-year polish vodka-making history to artfully craft Polish rye into an extraordinary vodka of distinct taste and character. Made from Polish Dankowskie Rye, quadruple-distilled to create a perfectly balanced vodka with character & purity. A dilution method with purified water from Belvedere's own supply allows the rye flavour and texture to shine.
Faint aromas of vanilla & soft creamy characters lead to a medium bodied, rich & velvety texture on the palate with a nutty finish. Belvedere vodka is perfect on the rocks or in a martini or other vodka based cocktail. This exclusive Belvedere Vodka release comes with its very own stainless steel, Belvedere bar spoon.
Maker:
Produced in one of the world’s longest operating polish distilleries, which has been making vodka since 1910, Belvedere’s Master Rye Distillers draw from a 600-year polish vodka-making history to artfully craft Polska rye into extraordinary spirits of distinct taste and character. Small and intimate, the Polmos Żyrardów distillery delivers Belvedere’s signature consistent quality and has been recognised by the European Commission for its aggressive sustainability agenda, having reduced energy-related CO2 emissions by 42% since 2012. Belvedere’s production is regulated by the Polska Vodka legal regulation, one of the strictest in the world. As the appellation dictates, all production must take place on Polish soil, the spirit must be made of either grain or potato, and nothing else can be added.
Belvedere is created by a collective - a family of employees who distill Belvedere in its hometown of Zyrardów in Poland. Belvedere only sources its Polska rye locally, which is 100% organic. They work closely with eight agricultural partners allowing 100% traceability of the grains. It also started the Raw Spirit Program, launched in partnership with the Technical University of Lodz, to promote the sustainable growth of Polska rye.
