Sobieski Vodka
Continued from Agrandioseblog.com, see the first part here
… however after sampling Sobieski Vodka I realized that it was a really decent vodka and given it’s extremely low suggested retail value of $10.99 - this is a vodka that warrants a place in your mixology cabinet.
Sobieski vodka is named after the 17th century King Jan III Sobieski, and is made from Dankowski rye, the highest quality vodka grain in Poland. The rye imparts an almost gin-like, spicy, pronounced sweetness to the flavor. I wouldn’t classify this as a sipping vodka - vodkas that come from a potato base usually tend to fare better as sipping vodkas - but rather as a mixing vodka, perfect for parties.
Sobieski vodka positions itself as a value vodka, it has all the qualities you can find in premium brands like Belvedere, Gray Goose etc but at 1/4th the cost. This is good news for consumers - pretty soon that happy hour cosmo / kamikaze with rail vodka won’t taste like crap anymore (as long as they use a value brand like Sobieski).
The Beverage Testing Institute said it best, “An incredible value in a world of high priced vodkas.”
Sobieski Vodka, $10.99 for a 750 ml / $19.99 for 1.75L.

Hey - love your new site. Looks very sharp.
I haven’t tried this vodka either but seeing the previous posts, I do like Domaine Canton. I covered it a while back, should you like to see my 2 cents…
Anyway, keep up the good work - and let me know if I should switch my link to you from A Grandiose Blog to this one…???

I haven’t tried this Vodka, however, last night I was at a restaurant in New York and had the most amazing cocktail called the white orchid which is made with this new ginger liqueur called Domaine de Canton. It was really really delicious!
