Kavka is a premium vodka distilled and bottled in Poland that has recently launched in Australia, in time for World Vodka Day on October 4th, 2021.
Made using traditional production methods from the 19th Century, Kavka is reminiscent of how Polish Vodka used to taste: bold and full of personality. Adding to the uniqueness, Kavka has delicious pot still spirit of apple and plum notes, which makes it taste smoother than most other vodkas.
Founded by renowned restauranteur and Polish Prince, Jan Felix Michal Korybut Woroniecki, Jan believes “For a long time the Vodka space has been overshadowed by innovative Gin makers and the growth in popularity of Tequila, Rum and Whiskey as drinkers look for personality in their spirits. Now it’s time to reinvigorate Vodka!”

Tasting Notes:
Nose: Moves quickly from mellow to full-bodied fruitiness: fresh, ripe apples, rich dried fruit, then honey, with an underlying layer of fresh rye bread and grain notes adding range. Retains freshness and range.
Palate: Elegant, indulgent mouthfeel. A light richness emerges and then intensifies into a lemon freshness with orange marmalade notes. Followed by a creaminess with grain and rye bread notes. All merging into a finale of luscious, rich-dry flavour.
Finish: Rich-dry balance, with emerging fruit notes of apples and prunes. Garnished by lemons, underlined by dryness.
