Soplica Quince Vodka 750ML

Soplica Quince Vodka 750ML is a Polish fruit-flavored vodka bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) from the Polmos Łańcut distillery in southeastern Poland. This expression earned a Silver medal at the 2025 London Spirits Competition, where judges highlighted its ripe quince aromatics, balanced sweetness, and harmonious spiced finish.Quick Facts: ABV: 40%  |  Origin: Łańcut, Southeastern Poland  |  Style: Quince-Flavored Vodka  |  Distillery: Polmos Łańcut (est. 1891)Production & HeritagePolmos Łańcut traces its origins to 1891, when founder Bolesław Michał Kasprowicz developed the original recipes that the distillery still follows today. The base spirit is produced from golden rye and wheat using four-column distillation followed by active carbon filtration, yielding a clean, neutral canvas for the fruit infusion. The quince character comes from ripened Polish orchard fruit that undergoes extended maturation under controlled conditions, allowing the tangy, pear-adjacent flavor of the quince to integrate fully into the spirit.Tasting NotesAroma: Ripe quince leads immediately, carrying pear-like fruit and a lift of citrus zest. Orange blossom and subtle florals emerge underneath, giving the nose a fragrant, autumnal quality.Taste: The entry is distinctly fruity — tangy quince with a sweet-sour balance that recalls biting into the fresh fruit. Mid-palate, light honey and citrus brighten the profile, while soft toffee rounds out the sweetness without tipping into cloying territory. The texture is smooth and medium-bodied for a flavored vodka.Finish: Bright and clean with a lightly tart quince echo and gentle warming spice. The finish is moderate in length, resolving into a pleasant, dry close that invites another sip.How to Drink Soplica QuinceChilled and neat is the traditional Polish serve — pour it straight from the freezer into a small glass alongside a hearty meal. It also performs well on the rocks, where dilution opens up the floral and honey notes. For cocktails, try it in a Quince Collins, where the fruit’s tartness replaces lemon for a naturally aromatic twist; a Polish Cosmo, substituting the quince vodka for plain to add autumnal depth alongside cranberry juice; or a Quince Mule, pairing it with ginger beer and a squeeze of lime to amplify the sweet-sour character.Best For

Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat does Soplica Quince taste like? It delivers a sweet-yet-tart quince fruit flavor balanced by light honey, citrus, and soft toffee, finishing with gentle warming spice. The overall impression is of ripe autumn orchard fruit with a clean vodka backbone.How does Soplica Quince compare to Saska Quince vodka? Both are Polish quince-flavored vodkas, but Soplica uses a golden rye and wheat base distilled through four columns, which tends to produce a cleaner, more neutral spirit before the fruit infusion. Soplica also draws on recipes dating to 1891, giving it a longer heritage in the flavored vodka category.Is Soplica Quince good for cocktails? Yes — its 40% ABV provides enough structure to hold up in mixed drinks, while the natural quince tartness adds complexity that plain vodka cannot. It works especially well in sours, mules, and spritz-style serves.Where is Soplica Quince made? It is produced at the Polmos Łańcut distillery in the city of Łańcut, located in the Podkarpackie region of southeastern Poland. The distillery has operated at this location since its founding in 1891.What foods pair well with Soplica Quince? Roast pork loin benefits from the quince’s sweet-tart contrast; aged Gouda or Manchego cheese echoes the toffee undertones; smoked duck or game sausage matches the autumnal fruit character; apple tart or pear desserts complement the flavor family; and sharp pickled vegetables balance the vodka’s sweetness.What sizes does Soplica Quince come in? The standard bottle available in most markets is 750ml. Soplica also produces smaller formats including 500ml and 200ml in certain regions, though availability varies by market.Is Soplica Quince worth the price? Soplica positions as an accessible, everyday-quality flavored vodka that delivers genuine fruit character without an inflated price tag. Within the Polish fruit vodka category, it sits in the value-to-mid tier, making it a strong option for both sipping and cocktail use without stretching the budget.Why Soplica Quince?Quince is an underrepresented flavor in the vodka world, and Soplica’s version draws on over 130 years of distilling heritage to get it right. The four-column distillation and active carbon filtration produce a base spirit clean enough to let the orchard fruit speak, while the extended maturation of the quince infusion avoids the artificial taste common in lesser fruit vodkas. The 2025 London Spirits Competition Silver medal confirms that the balance of sweet, tart, and spice holds up under professional scrutiny. For anyone looking beyond the usual berry and citrus flavored vodkas, this expression offers a genuinely different — and distinctly Polish — drinking experience.
