Founded by Tad Dorda, the range is a true celebration of Polish craft and culture and is one of the few vodka producers in the world to oversee 100% of its production process from the farm field right to the bottle.
Speciality Brands' strategy will look at expanding and increasing Chopin Vodka's presence in both on- and off-trade channels, supported by a marketing and PR programme that will bring to life the brand's story, generate excitement and conversations around the vodka category, and ensure both professionals and consumers across the country experience it in a fresh and immersive way.
Chris Seale who is the MD of Speciality Brands, told That's Food and Drink: “When we first met with Chopin Vodka we were immediately impressed with the team's passion and expertise in making luxury vodkas showing terroir, texture, and taste.
"As a family-owned business focused on producing the highest quality spirits, they share many of our values and they fit really well within our portfolio of premium drinks. We've got great plans for the Chopin brand, which include taking full advantage of the growing popularity of the martini cocktail in the UK.”
Tad Dorda, Chopin Vodka founder and CEO, told us: “We're really thrilled to be unveiling this new UK partnership. We were looking for a distributor that would bring passion, expertise, and a flair for building luxury brands in a market that needs nurturing in a very specific way. Speciality Brands has all the right credentials and we're looking forward to taking Chopin on the next steps of its journey.”
Starting from the middle of this month, October, Speciality Brands is bringing the three single ingredient vodkas to the UK market, including the flagship Potato vodka, alongside the limited-edition luxury Vera Wang bottle, blended editions, and super-premium Family Reserve.
