Nothing refreshes like ice-cold Peachka.
Peach Vodka (or "Peachka") would be greeted with laughs and embarrassed smiles if it were sold in Slovenia, where the homonym piÄ?ka is a popular curse word imported from the Serbo-Croatian.
I first assumed that the bottle shown above wasn’t real, but this girl talks about trying some Peachka (apparently it’s bottled in New Jersey) on the recommendation of her sister, who had been lapping it up in France with great enthusiasm. (These lines write themselves!)
Her best comment: "Perhaps the disadvantaged of my little town sit around on the street corners at night nursing Peachka."

Well, I guess that Peachka vodka HAS to taste well. Can zou imagine the taste of a Slovene spirit called the same way?
Have a nice weekend m8s!
Do you really think there would be laughs? After all, this is the same country that likes to drink “ass-sweat” (ritoznojcan) wine.
He he, I saw this bottle at a liquor store a while ago.
There’s something fishy about it….
Great point, rolig. Speaking of wines with unappetizing names, there’s also Å¡Ä?urek. (lit. “cockroach”) It even has a little roach on the label. It doesn’t taste too bad, though.
crni: I was about to write to you “No, it’s true” when the joke hit me with its full weight, like a ton of laughing bricks.
He he, yeah, Mr. These Lines Write Themselves…
Speaking of weird wine labels, here’s one from USA:
Fat Bastard
It even has some weird animal, looking kinda like a hippo. And we all know hippos are cool and by cool, I mean totally sweet.
Scurek is the family name of the wine producer, if I am not mistaken.
Hehhehee, Peachka. This reminds me of that time when I met a guy from the US called Dick Kurtz.
…and when you’re not in the mood for a glass of Fat Bastard and you’re a real Peachka that day, there’s always beer to set you straight
OOPs…that was supposed to be www.arrogantbastard.com/ beer.
