Rye Vodka | 59.8% ABV (119.5 Proof) | 700mL | Poland | High-Proof Vodka | Crafted for Cocktails
Process & Profile
Chopin Bartender’s Choice Rye Vodka is a high-proof Polish rye vodka created for bartenders, mixologists, and cocktail drinkers who want vodka with more presence in the glass. Bottled at 59.8% ABV, this expression is significantly stronger than standard vodka, giving it the structure to stand up to ice, citrus, mixers, syrups, and spirit-forward cocktail builds without disappearing.
Made from rye, Chopin Bartender’s Choice Rye Vodka showcases a fuller, spicier, more expressive profile than a neutral 80 proof vodka. The higher proof was designed to help maintain flavor after dilution, making it especially useful in cocktails where texture, backbone, and intensity matter. Instead of fading behind other ingredients, this vodka brings black pepper, smoky aromatics, subtle herbs, blackthorn, almond, apricot, and vanilla into the drink.
This is a niche vodka made for cocktail performance, not just casual sipping. For customers looking for a high-proof vodka, rye-based vodka, or bartender-focused cocktail vodka, Chopin Bartender’s Choice Rye Vodka offers a bold and distinctive option with enough flavor to elevate martinis, mules, Bloody Marys, vodka sours, and other premium mixed drinks.

How to Enjoy
Chopin Bartender’s Choice Rye Vodka is best used in cocktails where a stronger vodka can make a real difference. Because of its 119.5 proof strength, it works especially well in drinks that normally dilute quickly with ice, juice, citrus, or mixers. Use it in a martini, vodka sour, Moscow mule, Bloody Mary, espresso martini, or high-proof vodka soda when you want the vodka to remain noticeable.
For a cleaner serve, chill the bottle well and pour a small measure over ice with soda water and citrus. Because this is a high-proof vodka, measure carefully when mixing. Its bold rye character and higher ABV make it best suited for intentional cocktail builds rather than casual heavy pours.
