Podole Wielkie. The Homestead. The Distillery.
Podole Wielkie. The Homestead. The Distillery.
A Tradition spanning 150 years
The history of Podole Wielkie goes back to the 15th century. From the beginning of its existence until 1945, the property belonged to German families. It was then taken over by the state and a state-owned farm was created in its place. The change of the political system in 1981, resulted in its current owners managing to lease and then buy the farm in its entirety. The distillery where we create our products has over 150 years of tradition. It has always been an integral part of our homestead. This structure used to be one of many of its kind and their characteristic and distinctive brick chimneys, were easily recognizable elements of the rural Pomeranian landscape. Today, it is one of the few remaining active agricultural distilleries. The history of this place is truly compelling and we are more than appreciative, that we can continue the sterling work, first laid down by our predecessors.
Podole Wielkie. The Homestead. The Distillery.
A True Family
We have been tending the fields and this homestead for almost 30 years. We are a small family run business, not a huge multi-national. We set and establish the rules ourselves. Podole Wielkie is a family not only in the literal sense, but our family is us and each one of our tremendous employees that make it so. The work we do, is honest, with absolute commitment and passion. Thanks to this, as well as our knowledge and experience gained over the past decades, we have the ability to create truly unique things. By being together, here is where a truly wonderful story begins.
