Sobieski Vodka is produced in Poland from rye (Dankowski Rye). It is named after Jan III Sobieski, a 17th century Polish king and military leader.[1] Sobieski has been distilled since 1864. It comes in variety of flavours such as: Original (Red label), Peach, Mandarin, Vanilla, Melon, etc. The red label flavour has 40% ABV.

In the Fall of 2007, Sobieski Vodka was ranked as the #1 vodka by the Beverage Tasting Institute, based on a blind tasting of 108 different vodkas.[2] Proof66.com, which aggregates ratings from the Beverage Testing Institute and other spirit ratings organizations, put Sobieski in the 99th percentile of all vodkas.[3]
