Aquavit
Aquavit is a distinctive Scandinavian spirit, enjoyed for centuries in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. Its name, "aquavit," means "water of life" in Latin. Typically distilled from grain or potatoes and flavored with herbs and spices like caraway and dill, aquavit can range from clear, unaged varieties to barrel-aged versions with complex flavors and a golden hue. It has a herbal, spiced flavor profile, often with notes of vanilla, caramel, and wood from aging.
Traditionally consumed during festive occasions such as Christmas and Midsummer, aquavit is enjoyed chilled in small shots, often paired with traditional Scandinavian dishes. Notable brands include Aalborg from Denmark, Linie from Norway, and O.P. Anderson from Sweden.
