Hundreds of years ago, Polish nobility first began infusing their vodka with bison grass, because they believed it provided vitality, stamina and strength. Over the years, bison grass has been rumored to be an aphrodisiac and a strong influencer of the affairs of the heart. Moreover, bison grass is also the dietary staple of the legendary bison herds whose members were relocated to Germany, Great Britain and other countries, but eventually became extinct because they did not reproduce. It is speculated that they were deprived of their preferred food source and sexual stimulant.

Modern Bak’s Bison Grass Vodka Żubrówka is a premium category of Polish vodka that is traditionally made with bison grass extract. It features a single blade of authentic bison grass grown in the northeastern area of Białowieża. This region is known for its pristine forests and bison grass fields.

One of the most popular drinks based on Bak’s Bison Grass Vodka is the derived from the Cherokee word, “Tatanka”, meaning bison (taken from the movie “Dancing with Wolves”). This refreshing drink is made with original Bak’s Bison Grass Vodka Żubrówka, apple juice and a wedge of lemon.
