Khlibnyi Dar (Ukrainian: Хлібний Дар, literally "Bread Gift"), also transliterated as Hlibny Dar, Hlebnyi Dar or Hlebny Dar, is a brand of horilka (Ukrainian vodka), first introduced to the market in 2002.[1] It is owned by the Bayadera Group (Ukrainian: Баядера Груп),[2] produced in a factory of the National Horilka Company (Ukrainian: Національна горілчана компанія) in the village of Stepanky (Ukrainian: Степанки) in the Cherkasy Oblast of Ukraine.[1] All products from the Khlibnyi Dar range are made through the distillation of fermented cereal grains,[3] which is the most popular ingredient for making vodka in the Polish and Ukrainian tradition.[4] According to The Millionaires’ Club report, Khlibnyi Dar was the third-best-selling brand of vodka in the world in 2011.[5]
