Is vodka a Russian or Polish creation? Vodka is derived from the Slavic word 'voda', or as the Polish use 'woda', meaning water. The history of Vodka is ancient, the first documented production of vodka was in Russia at the end of the 9th century, but the first known distillery, at Khylnovsk, was established about two hundred years later as reported in the Vyatka Chronicle of 1174. Although Poland claims to have begun distilling vodka earlier, in the 8th century, the first documented Polish vodkas appeared in the 11th century and were called 'gorzalka'. During the Middle Ages, distilled liquor was used mainly for medicinal purposes, as well as being an ingredient in the production of gunpowder. It wouldn't be until the 14th century that Vodka would be recognized formally as a 'drink'. Toasts: here's how to say "cheers" in other cultures: Chinese - Wen Lie!
