Talk:Krupnik

message: The article claims "[Krupnik] is a distant relative of the medovukha (Russian) or miód pitny (Polish), a honey-made spirit popular in all Slavic countries." Miód pitny is actually mead, not a spirit. In Poland, we make miodówka, which consists of spirit (~95% ABV), honey and spices. From my understanding, the main difference between Krupnik and Miodówka is that Krupnik has more emphasis on the spices than on the honey, while miodówka is primarily a honey liquor. In fact, some people make it purely with honey.
So, yeah... Changing miód pitny to miodówka.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.23.51.56 (talk) 08:08, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Miód Pitny?

message: I'm familiar with both the Krupnik (pictured) from Polmos-Poznan and the Lithuanian counterpart, Likeris Krupnikas, from Vilnius. I find them very similar in flavor, though Krupnikas is a bit darker in color. What I don't get is why they're classified as a type of vodka. To an American, they seem much more on the order of a liqueur -- sticky and sweet. Perhaps one of you can explain that to me. To my taste, they make a good substitute for something like Drambuie.
BTW, Halibutt, you'll be glad to know I find both Krupnik and Krupnikas far superior to the German honey liqueur Bärenfäng, which is said to be East Prussian in origin.

thread_title: Vodka?

message: According to a source I would credit as reliable (the Encyclopedia of Wines and Spirits by Alexis Lichine, in French) Krupnik would not be honey flavored grain spirit, but distilled honey spirits : spirits made from distilling mead as vodka and whisky are from grain, and brandy from wine. Any experts or more reliable sources to verify or falsify this? 
And on another subject, I'm not sure this has a place in the category "mead". Either it is a grain spirit based liqueur, or distilled spirits (if from a fermented honey/mead base). Either way, it is not a variety of mead and belongs to that other category : "honey liqueurs and spirits. So I effected the move. --Svartalf 08:46, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
