Clad in aristocratic heritage and unmistakable elegance, the Potocki Courland Cumin - Vodka - 39°C brings back the spirit of ceremonial tables where cumin was celebrated as a subtle, captivating spice. Inspired by the Allasch tradition, this Polish elixir blends historical craft with contemporary aesthetics, seeking a harmony that immediately appeals to curious palates. The maceration of cumin, highlighted by fennel, coriander and the delicate brightness of orange peels, gives this vodka a gustatory structure that is both precise and alluring. At 39% alcohol, it offers notable presence—broad without excess—for a refined tasting that favors aromatic expression over sheer strength. Its finesse makes it the perfect bridge between aperitif moments and dinner, a conversational spirit that signs your occasions with distinction.

Assemblage et vinification

This exceptional vodka is built on an exceptionally pure base, distilled with care to serve as a neutral canvas for the botanicals. The cumin seeds are carefully selected, then macerated with fennel, coriander and orange peels. The slow maceration extracts the quintessence of the spices and citrus, resulting in a clear, intelligible aromatic palette. A meticulous filtration preserves the delicate visual nuance and the satiny mouthfeel. Bottled at 39%, it reveals a precise aromatic architecture, bringing length and brightness without ever overwhelming the palate. The result is a flavored signature that remains true to the spirit of vodka—upright, pure and perfectly calibrated for neat tasting as well as high-end mixology.

Notes de dégustation

• Appearance : Very pale yellow with subtle greenish highlights, clear and luminous, promising a restrained and refined expression.
• Nose : Delicately spiced bouquet, led by warm cumin notes, lifted by an aniseed hint of fennel, a citrus edge from the orange peels and a coriander background that adds nerviness and freshness.
• Palate : Soft and clean attack, silky texture, a subtle balance between a dry profile and a muted sweetness. Cumin unfolds without overstatement, coriander gives a lively rhythm, and orange provides a clear, persistent finish with immaculate aromatic purity.

Température de service et conseils

Serve between 8 and 10°C in a tulip glass or a small spirit glass to reveal the spice and citrus nuances. A few minutes of aeration before the first sip refines the aromatic contours. For a broader expression, you can also taste it slightly less chilled while preserving its upright character. Store the bottle upright, away from light and temperature fluctuations to preserve the integrity of the aromas.
