Vodka is one the most popular distilled spirits in the world, and yet doesn't get the same recognition as other wines and spirits. Tad Dorda wants the change that. Since 1992, after taking over a distillery that had been operating since 1896, Dorda and his family have been crafting potato vodka at Chopin Vodka in Poland. Inspired by the music of renowned local composer Frédéric Chopin, the vodka producer strives to capture the beauty and richness of this creamy, flavorful drink in every bottle. Watch how the best potatoes are harvested, distilled, and bottled into this beloved spirit.

the CEO that says you cant distill a product more than once, obviously does not actually know much of anything about the distillation process. that is one of the most asinine comments I have ever heard somebody say when talking about distillation. it is 100% wrong. I is very common practice to take the product after first distillation and then put it back through the still to distill it further. it is how you cut out certain flavors and also make it a higher percentage of alcohol. this is something that nearly every distillery does, EVEN HIS. his comment just shows his ignorance about the process and that he is only a business guy and has nothing to do with the actual product production.

I mean, he’s correct. Have you ever heard of pickled potatoes I looked it up, and apparently attempts don’t look promising, and they’re certainly not traditional. Potato jam Same thing, not promising nor traditional. Basically, anything can be attempted by trendy chefs these days, and while these ones don’t look that good, it’s important to note that traditional Polish cooking really didn’t have a way to preserve potatoes. Alcohol was probably one of the earliest methods that came around when potatoes were brought back by settlers (vodka production in Poland via grain means is said to stretch back even to beyond the tenth century)

Weird that the title tries to catch views with the seemingly high quantity made, but the CEO even emphesizes himself that the rather low quantity is a testament to the quality.
How real traditional Potato Vodka is made in Poland

Chopin is delicious and a personal favorite. Unfortunately, the little island I live on in the US doesn’t know that liquor can be ruined by heat and light, and half the bottles I’ve opened out here have gone rancid: /

In the US we store potatoes for up to a year. There’s farms that are just recently shipping out the last of the potatoes from last years harvest as they are pulling this years harvest out of the ground.

The potato is from Peru and there are 4, 000 different kinds. I love potatoes and drank only vodka drinks when I drank alcohol. Great family. Thank you.

Very interesting video, in a world of awful private equity it is great to see a well run decent company and production process.
