Since the 14th century, Bison- grass has been used to infuse a unique vodka, Zubrowka, a singular spirit of supreme smoothness . Each bottle contains a blade of this grass, bringing a pale olive colour and freshness to the vodka.
Background: In a remote corner of Poland in the North Podlasie Lowland lies a mysterious place called Bialowieza, the last primeval forest in Europe, home to Europe's last remaining herd of bison and to a distinctively, aromatic plant - Bison-grass. Named in honour of the bison, this aromatic plant resists cultivation and, to this day, is still harvested by hand. |
