Our story

BlackBeard is an unusual place in Wroclaw. The only place in Poland where the barber is combined with unique in our country alcohol brands. BlackBeard offers high-quality rums, gins, wines, champagnes and whisky.

 

Formed in 2017 concept of joining a barber with an alcohol store has more and more to offer. In an old historic building at 57 Tęczowa Street, the residents of Wrocław can explore new flavours of alcohol and new experiences. The building at Tęczowa Street is a modern, loft interior with walls that remember the history, sweat and tears of the factory workers that existed there before the war. The historic character of the place fits perfectly with the old profession of a male hairdresser. In Poland, the equivalent of a barber in the old days was „cyrulik” (otherwise a „balwierz”). “Balwierz” comes from transporting the German word “barbier” to Polish, which comes from the Latin “barbitonsores”, literally “the one who cuts beards”. This profession registered on the pages of Polish history in the eighteenth century, but previously such person also dealt with treatments (caring for the body and well-being). It is necessary to correct the rumours that a barber is just a hairdresser. A visit to BlackBeard is a celebration of masculinity. Barber not only shortens hair and beard but also deals with men’s piling, shaves a man and makes the client feel well-groomed and pampered. In addition, a glass of aromatic, golden beverage completes the whole extraordinary atmosphere.
