An old mate of mine back in Hull is of Polish extraction and prior to their greater freedoms, his family would occasionally visit. When they came across they'd be laden with suitcases full of different flavoured vodkas, I would swap a suitcase full of designer clothing for a suitcase of vodka.
The best thing about their arrival was the obligatory tasting session, where we'd try all the different flavours. It was at one such session that I first encountered Bison Grass vodka. When I enquired what it was flavoured with I was told, "whatever the bison do on the grass"

You are right in Poland they often call Zubrowka Bison mickey vodka but it is pretty much a joke as they would wash the grass before using it. I would guess that prior to being used it was covered in poop, flies or anything else floating around. Despite that it is a nice vodka.
I have always liked scrumpy but people in the know always tell me that the best ones are the traditional ones with a dead sheeps head in the barrel to give it body. As long as it tastes nice i dont really care
