Speaker: Paul Kozub
In 2003, with just $6,000, Paul started the V-One journey with a small still in the basement of his house in Massachusetts. Within a year, he was on his way to Krakow, Poland to meet with a world-renowned vodka expert and quickly realized that that country – his ancestral homeland – was the place where V-One Vodka would take flight. Paul’s passion has always been about crafting the finest farm-to-glass vodka, and V-One is the first producer of vodka made exclusively from organic spelt grain (orkisz in Polish), the ingredient at the very top of the distillation pyramid. In February 2019, Paul completed a multi-million dollar purchase and 12,000 square-foot expansion of his own distillery in Kamień, Poland – about two hours southeast of the capital Warsaw and just a few miles from the birthplace of vodka. The historic distillery is located right next to the world-famous Vistula River. V-One continues to grow across the US and beyond, and has gained international recognition and awards such as multi-year Gold Medal winner at the Warsaw Spirit Competition.
