One of the Polish chaps at work kindly brought this back from Poland for me

It's says brandy but the Polish lad says it's vodka.
At 70% I would think it's very strong lol

I normally drink vodka neat but think I might need to dilute this a little lol any recommendations to what to mix it with ?

I always thought it was a bit of a myth that you could get stuff that strong so looking forward to trying it, not bad for £9 as well

sparking mineral water (or still)

Its somewhat killer in terms of how trashed you get on so little booze (even on std strength stuff). Plus if its got a good flavour you cant taste it better

Myth, no, and by absolute standards your brandy is a tad on the weak side: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everclear_(alcohol)

just make sure you don't have anywhere to go the following day...... you drink a bit, think its nice, and then drink a lot more.. then your body catches up.... a workmate got me some made with cherries... it tasted like cough medicine, and my legs didn't work afterwards.

it does remind me of the victor meldrew thing where his wife was poorly & he did the shopping... he came home really proud cos he'd been to 8 different shops but he'd managed to find a bottle of polish sherry.... and his wife says... i wanted polish & sherry

Did you not read my link? :p 95% and it's only 95% because after than you actually can't get any more water out of it with food grade distillery methods :p

That's brilliant stuff! Bloody gorgeous with a bit of coke if you want a mixer, but its by far best drunk on its own!

You want lethal, you should try some stuff that Cyrpiots drink called Zivania or Zivaniya depending where you're from. You can get some at close to 100%. It puts hairs on your... hairs lol

How about Polish Vodka & RedBull?
