POTOCKI WÓDKA – DISCOVER TRUE SPIRIT

In March, we partnered with Hermès in Atlanta to display selected saddle and tack, commissioned by Nicolas Potocki in the late XIXth century, especially shipped from the Łańcut Museum for the occasion.

In December, we sponsored an evening of cocktails and canapés at the Looking Glass Theater in Chicago, which showed the first theatrical adaptation of “The Manuscript Found in Saragossa”, the novel by Jan Potocki (available from Penguin Classics).
An interesting twist to that story is that the theatre’s artistic director, Phil Smith, had been impressed by a Potocki martini at the Duke’s a year before. To celebrate this reunion Phil mixed the cocktails for the audience before the play, while JR Potocki spoke about his forefather after the performance.
