Smogóry Forest is Belvedere's argument that vodka has terroir — and Drinkhacker, tasting it side by side with its sibling, agreed the brand wasn't lying. Belvedere has distilled Polish rye at the Polmos Żyrardów distillery since 1910, and in 2018 it released two single-estate vodkas made from the same rare Dankowskie Diamond rye seed grown in two different places. This one comes from a single estate in Smogóry, a tiny village deep in the vast hardwood forests of western Poland, where long summers, mild winters, and fertile soil produce a bolder grain. Quadruple-distilled, proofed with purified artesian water, no additives, no sugar, 40% ABV. Drinkhacker rated it an A: more assertive than Lake Bartężek, with an Old World nose of medicinal aromas, eucalyptus, and a touch of truffle, then a bold palate of racy spice, sautéed mushrooms, fresh herbs, and a grind of pepper — an excellent, well-balanced vodka that works in a Martini as well as a Bloody Mary. Wine Enthusiast found a subtle lemon fragrance and a creamy vanilla palate finishing with white and black pepper sparks. Belvedere's own notes: salted caramel, white pepper, and honey — bold, robust, and savory. Honest note: this is a vodka with flavor, which is either the point or the problem depending on what you want from vodka. For a savory Martini with an olive, a serious Bloody Mary, or neat and chilled to taste what rye can do, it's the bolder of the pair.
