Gdansk Vodka Tasting

At the time of your choice, we'll meet at a bar-restaurant located in the heart of Gdansk's historic centre. From here we'll start our vodka tour.

For 1 hour 30 minutes, we'll enjoy 6 shots of traditional vodka. We'll explore the Polish national drink, learning about popular brands and varieties including citrus, nut, and molasses. Vodka originated as a remedy for digestive diseases, used in the Middle Ages as medicine for gastric problems and available in pharmacies.

During the tour, we'll also experience different aperitifs to pair with the drinks. Interesting stories will be shared, such as the prohibition of vodka by Tsar Nicholas II in 1914 and its relationship with gunpowder.

Finally, we'll conclude the tour in the streets of the centre of Gdansk.
