Born in the UK to a Polish father, Founder, Jan Woroniecki, has been involved in running Eastern European restaurants for many years.
During that time he has sold - and drunk - hundreds of different vodkas and has sometimes glimpsed the potential for renewal in some of the smaller, old fashioned, Polish brands – back to a time when each distillery would produce spirits that emphasised taste and individuality rather than trying to filter them out.
Working with Karol Terejlis - award winning Cocktail Barman - and Urszula Wojcik - Master Distiller - we believe we have created a truly great vodka with complexity, depth and a smoothness rarely found.
The ancient town of Sandomierz, in the heart of Poland’s Orchard, has been famed for fruit growing and distillation since Medieval times. Kavka was born out of this heritage.
