The Official Vodka of Dyngus Day Buffalo!
Yes, it's true - the birthplace of vodka can be found in Poland dating back to the early Middle Ages. And vodka (Polish: wódka), is not only the official national drink of Poland, it is the centerpiece of Polish life, enjoyed at most every celebration and occasion. In fact, in this land where vodka began, Sobieski is the number one premium vodka. So you'll forgive us if we bristle at the notion promoted by those who claim that vodka had its origins, well, elsewhere. There's frankly a lot that many people don't know about Poland, and we've only just begun to tell our story. Sobieski Vodka represents a careful blend of authenticity and modernity that enables us to meet the strict requirements of the Polish Product Origin Control System. In other words, making vodka in Poland, of Poland, is what's required to call Sobieski true Polish Vodka. Or as you'd say it in Gdansk, Wódka Polska
Official Beer of Dyngus Day
One of the the best selling brands of beer in Poland is the Official Polish Beer of Dyngus Day Buffalo. Since 1629, they've been brewing this Polish pilsner in the town of Tychy in Southern Poland. Tyskie is light in color, with a rich, full flavor, prominent hops for a strong, bitter palate, and a hearty 5.7 percent alcohol content. Tyskie may be purchased at all Official Dyngus Day Buffalo Festival Halls, Wegmans and Polish/European Delis across Western New York.
