Production & Heritage
Soplica’s roots reach back to 1891, when Kasprowicz developed the original recipes still used across the range today. The base spirit is produced from a blend of fermented wheat and rye grain, distilled six times for purity before the plum infusion takes place. Polish-grown plums provide the fruit character, distinguishing this expression from synthetic-flavored competitors and anchoring it firmly in Poland’s Dolnośląskie region. Since 2009, the Soplica flavored vodka range has accumulated numerous awards in both expert and consumer competitions across Europe.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: The nose opens with ripe, juicy plum followed by softer stone-fruit notes reminiscent of fresh apricot. A subtle dried-fig sweetness rounds out the bouquet, keeping things complex without becoming cloying.
Taste: The entry is clean and gently sweet, with plum flesh dominating the early palate. At mid-palate, a warming wheat-and-rye backbone emerges, lending body and a silky texture. Apricot and fig notes weave through the peak, balancing sweetness against a faint cereal dryness.
Finish: Medium in length with a lingering stone-fruit warmth and a smooth, velvety fade. There is no harsh alcohol bite — the six-times distillation keeps the close polished and even.
How to Drink Soplica Plum
The traditional Polish approach is to serve Soplica Plum well chilled — straight from the freezer, neat in a small glass. This amplifies the silky texture while taming the sweetness. It also works effectively in cocktails:
Plum Mule: Swap standard vodka for Soplica Plum, adding ginger beer and lime for a fruit-forward twist on the Moscow Mule.
Stone Fruit Collins: Combine with lemon juice, simple syrup, and soda water — the plum infusion adds depth that plain vodka cannot match.
Plum Cosmopolitan: Replace triple sec with Soplica Plum alongside cranberry and lime juice for a richer, more aromatic Cosmo.

What foods pair well with Soplica Plum? Dark chocolate — the bittersweet cocoa highlights the plum’s depth. Aged hard cheeses like Oscypek or Gouda provide a salty counterpoint.

Cured meats such as kabanos offer a savory contrast to the vodka’s gentle sweetness.

Why Soplica Plum?
What separates Soplica Plum from the crowded field of flavored vodkas is the combination of a six-times distilled grain base and recipes that have remained essentially unchanged since 1891. That heritage is not merely decorative — the original Kasprowicz formulas earned 93 medals by 1939, and the modern expressions continue to collect awards in European competitions. The use of real Polish plums rather than artificial flavoring gives the spirit a dimensional, recognizable fruit character that holds up both chilled neat and inside cocktails. For drinkers seeking an authentic Polish flavored vodka with genuine provenance, Soplica Plum remains one of the most accessible and well-established options on the shelf.
