Polugar No. 3 tastes like Borodinsky bread — the dark, molasses-sweetened Russian sourdough rye flavored with coriander and caraway — and that's exactly the point. It's built on Polugar Classic Rye bread wine, the pot-distilled grain spirit that was Russian vodka until 1895, when Tsar Alexander III ordered every pot still in the country destroyed and handed distillation to taxed government column stills. Vodka historian Boris Rodionov rediscovered the original recipes in 18th-century documents at the Russian National Museum, and because Russian law still forbids the method, he built Rodionov & Sons in a forest in Poland, reconstructing copper pot stills from period drawings. No. 3 follows the classic recipe of 19th-century Russian highborn vodkas: caraway and coriander go in before the third distillation so the spice binds into the spirit itself, then it's clarified with egg whites, filtered through birch charcoal, and bottled at 38.5% ABV. Expect a rich, dense bouquet of dark rye bread, abundant caraway, coriander, dried dill, cut grass, wildflowers, prune, and black pepper on the nose, opening into an oily palate that Wine Bros describes as "nicely spicy liquid bread" — soft, open, slightly sweet, elegant, and balanced. The pairings are the classics of the zakuski table: sauerkraut, pickled herring, salmon with herbs, lightly salted fish, duck, and dark buttered bread. Serve it ice cold, and try it with a cigar.
