About Grasovka

Grasovka is a Polish vodka flavoured with bison grass from the same forest area as Żubrówka, but sold under a different name in the German market. For newcomers it's an aromatic, subtly sweet vodka with the same unmistakable scent of freshly cut grass; for collectors it's notable that Grasovka and Żubrówka effectively share production method and origin, but were split into two market names for legal and marketing reasons, making it a rare example of a vodka 'twin brand'.

History & Background

Grasovka has its roots in the Polish tradition of bison grass vodka, a style dating back several hundred years to the forests around Białowieża on the border between Poland and Belarus. The vodka is made by the same producer and to the same recipe as the better-known Żubrówka, but sold under a different name on the German market. The background is a long-running trademark dispute, where EU rules prevented the use of the Żubrówka name in Germany. The solution became Grasovka, now established as an independent name with the same authentic bison grass character.

Production & Style

The vodka is distilled from grain and then flavored with bison grass extract, giving it a light, green tone.

Signature Style

Green, Spiced, Lightly Sweet
The flavor offers a green, spiced character with a light sweetness.
