Ahus Akvavit Aquavit

Åhus Akvavit is the culmination of over a century of locally honed distillation methods from its provenance and namesake, Åhus, a tiny seaside village in southern Sweden. Herbs, citrus peels, and spices are individually soaked in a solution of pristine aquifer water and fine spirit distilled from locally grown winter wheat to extract flavor from the botanicals. Time, alcohol concentration and temperature are tailored for the maceration of each unique ingredient. Once ready, the macerated components are distilled in copper to purify and improve the flavor profile. The distillation process is unique to each botanical, as they meticulously pull just the right slice of each spirit’s body from between the head and the tail.

Characteristically earthy caraway (of course!), herbal rosemary and bright lemon peel are highlighted with lighter-handed touches of fennel and Seville orange, resulting in a clean-tasting, versatile spirit. 76 Proof.
