Oh, hell yeah! I used to have some good stuff (in Japan of all places), but now all I have is a big bottle of Luksusowa (still not bad), so I'll just say that it's not all the same. There's a big variety in Polish vodka. Whenever people start talking like that, I remember something crazy from this old Polish TV show (Świat według Kiepskich, czy pamiętaś?) with some magical homemade stuff.

oleo this is something for you
actually Luksusowa is middle class
these are better
Chopin
Polska
Pan Tadeusz
Biała Dama
and these are the most popular:
1) Wyborowa Single Estate - second most popular in USA (after Smirnoff)
2) Wyborowa
3) Belvedere - 3rd most popular in USA
and no1 in Poland these days - ZUBROWKA
very good with apple juice

Żubrówka! I drank so much of that in Japan! You wouldn't believe how cheap that is there. It's still very good, though, especially since I like grass, really!
In the U.S., Belvedere is probably the only thing you can find in most regular stores, but I had some Chopin from a while back. You don't need apple juice with that; it's already infused.
In general, I like my vodka on the neutral side, and Chopin is still fairly neutral in spite of its extra flavors. Żubrówka tastes very distinct, so I prefer not to mix. Even if it's very neutral, if it's very high quality, I still drink it neat chilled. If I mix, I still want it neutral, but then I'll just go with something cheap, usually something Russian.

but whenever you go to club or some party people order zubrowka on the rocks with apple juice and lime
it's very popular these days

I didn't know...I got it years ago and because it was cheap.
Also, about Wyborowa in America, I've heard great things about it, but I've never actually seen it anywhere. I don't think it's got the same market as Smirnoff. Smirnoff is highly overrated, but it's also cheaper than anything you might find from Europe.
In my freezer right now are classic Столичная and a triple distilled potato vodka from Luksusowa. Maybe that's better than the standard variety?

Oh, well I haven't seen an ABC store since I moved away from the east coast some five years ago. I just need to get a job that lets me travel a lot to various places. Then I can buy all the crazy stuff I want without worrying about export markets and import taxes.
