Here’s an overview of your tour
Alcohol has a very special place in Polish society. It's more than just a drink; it's a tradition, it's culture, and it brings us closer. That's why I want to take you to taste the best types of Polish alcohols because there is definitely more than just vodka!
Join me on a tasting experience in Krakow as we explore 3 different bars in the Jewish Quarter area. The places we will visit are emblematic, making this not only a tasting but also a tour of some of the best local places to go for a drink.
On this must-do experience, you will have an opportunity to taste some honey wine and home-made flavored vodkas or as we call it, Nalewka. And of course, pure vodka, as the locals drink it. Don't worry, some traditional Polish tapas such as bread with lard and pickled cucumbers will also be served for you.
Any specific types of Polish alcohol you want to try? Let me know! I can always personalize your experience 100%
