About this deal

Philips had been toying with the idea of a premium Vodka to rival the already popular Absolut Vodka brand and his search took him to Poland. Belvedere Vodka entered into a partnership featuring the well-known R&B rapper, Usher, to release a limited edition, especially branded bottle of Vodka, called Product Red. A charity organization, the Global Fund, which fights HIV/AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis across the world, would receive 50% of the profits from sales.

Belvedere really began to take off when it was distributed in America by a company called Millennium LLC which eventually bought the brand in 2001, and turned it into one of the world’s most prestigious spirits. Millennium in turn was bought outright by French drinks giant LVMH in 2005 who own Belvedere to this day.

In a nightmare legal twist to the tail, Millennium Import LLC, with full rights to the Belvedere brand name in Europe found that the USA rights to the Belvedere trademark were owned by the Belvedere Winery, a US company based in Healdsburg, California. The image only appeared for some 45 minutes before it was withdrawn, but it was long enough for Belvedere to be severely taken to task for what was alleged to be a sales strategy making light of rape. Belvedere Vodka is relatively new compared to the facility it is distilled in. The building that houses the distillery is in a town called Polmos Zyrardów, Poland. Built in 1910, under communist rule, the facility produced a variety of products. At that time, it was called “ Distillery and Rectification of Spirit and Vodka”. Belvedere Vodka began being produced in 1993 and is currently the only vodka in production at the facility. History of Belvedere In Furthering the interests of Millennium, they went on to assist the Polmos Żyrardów distillery to upgrade to a three-column distillation process, further improving the quality.All distilleries were then nationalized (collectivized), and all were named Polska followed by the town’s name. Hence “Polska Żyrardów”. Vores butik ligger på Gothersgade 135 kl. mf. 1123 København K og har åbent mandag-fredag kl. 11:00-17:00.

In a surprise move in 2005, the founder of the Belvedere Winery announced that they would not be renewing the Millennium license to use the brand name in the USA. Instead, they would be launching their own range of spirits, under the Belvedere name.

After some time, he settled on the Belvedere brand. In 1994 he formed a company called The Millennium Import Company and was eventually awarded the sole USA marketing rights to the Belvedere Brand of Vodka by the Polish government. Liberated from the dead hand of Communism in 1989, free enterprise in Poland was relaunched. The old Polska Zvardow distillery, with a vision for a premium Vodka, began producing Belvedere Vodka in 1993, with the first bottles coming off the production line in 1994.
