About Podole Wielkie Distillery
Podole Wielkie Distillery is a historic Pomeranian distillery and farm located in Gdańsk, Województwo pomorskie. Established as a 170-year-old production site, the distillery preserves traditional Polish methods for crafting vodkas and okowitas. The site operates with a clear “From field to bottle” philosophy that emphasizes agricultural origins, careful distillation, and bottle-level storytelling.
The distillery offers a range of guided experiences designed for spirits enthusiasts, food lovers, and visitors seeking cultural immersion. Offerings include a two-hour Distillery Tour that explores heritage production, hands-on processes, and concludes with a tasting paired with finger food. Multiple tasting formats are available: the Polish Traditional Spirits Tasting showcases four distinct Podole Wielkie okowitas in a wine-style tasting format; Polish Vodka Tasting (60 minutes) presents four vodkas paired with local delicacies; and two partnered tasting events with Gdański Bowke Restaurant provide one-hour culinary pairings featuring mini beef tartare, duck pâté, and wild boar pâté at Chlebnicka 37/38 in Gdańsk.
Hosts provide expert insights, staged tastings, and optional exclusive merchandise on some sessions. The combination of an established production history, collaboration with local restaurants, and structured guided tours reinforces credibility and trust. Visitors can expect educational narratives, curated spirit selections, and clear sourcing information that tie each bottle back to the farm and regional tradition.
