What you’ll do
The Vodka Tasting Experience is 75zl per person and includes seven of Poland's best vodkas (everything from prestige quality clear, traditional herbal or spiced and modern flavoured varieties e.g hazelnut, salted caramel (my favourite) etc). We always suggest five from our experience to try and let you guys pick your very own final two. There's free mineral water for the whole of the tasting to clear your pallet and tasty Polish tapas style snacks to help soak up the alcohol so you're not too wobbly on your feet. At the end of the tasting we have a bartender give you a mini-cocktail making masterclass with one of the vodka's we've sampled followed mini vodka pub-quiz with a few of the cocktails to give out as prizes. It usually lasts between 60 and 90 minutes.
Why Vodka Tasting? The whole idea of the vodka tasting is to give people an introduction to Kraków and Poland in a fun way that involves a tasty mix of culture, history (and more than a good bit of drinking!) There's loads of funny stories and we keep the history etc short and sweet. The guides are super passionate about Polish vodka and Kraków in general so it's always a good idea to grill them on anything you might be interested in. The tips we give out can be the difference between having a good weekend and having an incredible weekend here. Everything you'd want to know about the best bars, restaurants, museums or which bottles of vodka to to bring home for presents, you can feel free to ask away ;)
