sobieski vodka – fit for a king, literally
i like SOBIESKI, WODKA POLSKA. the brand’s gimmick is that there is no gimmick. this VODKA POLSKA, if you will, is as genuine a vodka as one can hope for. you see, it was not russia, but poland who first fermented the potato into the world’s now favorite spirit. a fact for which SOBIESKI apologizes to russia for on it’s very witty website. (which is excellently designed i might add… with smart, funny copy to match it’s classically streamlined graphics.) hey, i’m an artist, i notice these things! but back to alcohol, SOBIESKI is non obtrusively smooth, and that is what all vodka hopes to be. 
no wonder the brand has been the #1 selling vodka in poland for eons. it comes of rather royal blood lines–named after poland’s beloved King Jan III Sobieski (1629 – 1696). this valient leader was not only passionate and devoted to his wife (he wrote her a treasure trove of love letters,) but was courageous, strong and smart enough to keep his people safe from the evil Ottoman Empire. this was a cool dude, and this is a good vodka (especially for it’s under $15 price tag). that’s the truth!
did i mention that of course INTOXICATED ZODIAC is overly impressed with the the fact that king sobieski had an actual constellation named after him: SOBIESKI’S SHIELD???!!! woah… that’s HUGE!!!! the name has since been changed to SCUTUM. (how lame is that?! scutum… why not just call it tropic of balls.)
