The story

The story behind Bak's

Bak's works in the old Polish nalewka tradition, where fruit and wild flora go into the spirit whole rather than as flavoring. The honey is real forest honey, the bison grass is harvested by hand, and the recipes lean on methods Polish distillers were using long before anyone wrote them down. The brand itself operates under the Bak's Bison Brand name, reviving Old World recipes rather than inventing new ones.

We have carried Bak's cordials on Jericho Turnpike for years, and the bottles have not changed much, which is the point. Krupnik and Wisniowka are the ones that leave the shelf fastest. Bison Grass earns its following honestly: Wine Enthusiast rated it 95 points.

The lineup

Explore the Bak's range

Three bottles do most of the work here: honey liqueur, bison grass, and the Krupnik that started the argument about which honey pour is better.

Buying guidance

Which Bak's is right for you?

Bak's sits in the value tier, and we price it that way. The Krupnik Honey Liqueur is $16.99 for a 750mL, the Honey Liqueur runs $19.99, and the Bison Grass in the liter bottle is $33.99, which works out cheaper per pour than most flavored vodkas on the same shelf. These are not bottles you ration. They are bottles you keep on hand for a cold night, a flask, or a cocktail that needs a Polish accent. Buy Bak's online and we will have it ready.

Good to know

Bak's questions, answered

What is Bak's Krupnik?
Bak's Krupnik is a Polish honey liqueur made with real forest honey and spice, bottled at 76 proof. Serve it neat at room temperature or warmed in winter. It is the traditional nalewka style, not a sweet syrup.
Is Bak's Bison Grass vodka or liqueur?
Bak's Bison Grass is a flavored vodka at 80 proof, infused with hand harvested bison grass. It drinks dry and herbal rather than sweet. Chill it hard and mix with unfiltered apple juice and lemon.
What does bison grass taste like?
Bison grass tastes of cut hay, vanilla and green almond, with a dry finish. The infusion comes from real grass harvested at the forest edge. It reads herbal, not floral, which is why apple juice suits it so well.
Can you ship Bak's cordials?
Yes, to the states where it is legal, confirmed at checkout. Bak's cordials are available for free curbside pickup in Commack and local delivery, same-day or next-day across Nassau and Suffolk, free over $250. Call (631) 343-7200 to confirm stock.
What is a nalewka?
A nalewka is a traditional Polish infused spirit, made by steeping fruit, honey or botanicals in alcohol and often resting it for months. Bak's builds its cordials in that style. Think of it as Poland's answer to a homemade liqueur, done properly.
