Since Poland joined the European Union in 2004, the country's exports of spirits have doubled in terms of quantity and tripled in terms of value, the paper said.
The paper added that Polish vodka brands are valued abroad and consumers are willing to pay more for spirits from Poland than from many other countries.
The average price of a litre of exported Polish vodka in 2016 was EUR 9.53, while in 2014 it was EUR 8.71, the daily said.
According to the paper, Polish vodka producers are looking for more countries willing to import Polish vodka, including Vietnam, India, South Africa and countries in South America.
