  12. Półtorak, dwójniak, trójniak, czwórniak • Mead production in Poland has a thousand-year old tradition and many varieties. • The history of their production dates back to the beginnings of Poland’s statehood. In 966 the Spanish diplomat, merchant and traveller, Abraham Ibn Jacob, wrote: • “Beside the abundance of food, meat and land for ploughing, the country of Mieszko I abounds in mead, which is how the Slavic wines and intoxicating drinks are called”
