Polish vodka goes back to black

Spirits producer Roust Group has introduced a vodka variety in a bottle made of black transparent glass which emphasises the liquid inside.

The long neck makes pouring easier, while the bison grass engraving connects with the brand's roots, according to marketing director Alicja Jelec.

Zubrowka-Black1

The Żubrówka Black (Czarna) vodka draws its taste from the richness of the primeval Białowieża Forest in Poland, undergoing a filtration process which uses charcoal from Białowieża oaks.

The water for Żubrówka Black is drawn from springs in this forest, and high-quality wheat is used for producing the neutral spirit that comes from Polish farms.
 
The special character of Żubrówka Black is not only emphasised by perfectly selected ingredients but through its unique packaging.

The Asia Pacific International Spirits and Wines Alliance (APISWA) has appointed Ian McKendrick as its new executive director.

More than seven million Australian adults could be using GLP-1 medicines by 2036, and the packaged categories most exposed are already recording double-digit declines among current users, according to new research from EY.

In a first for the professional services company, PwC, it will offer workplace opportunities for graduates of OzHarvest’s Nourish program. Nourish is part of the food rescue organisation’s social enterprise hospitality business, Gastronomy.
