Key Flavours
Serve
Rich, vanilla ice cream with a backdrop of butterscotch on the nose. To taste, it has a distinct character of vanilla, with hints of dark chocolate. Similar to a distilled Viennetta, except it's bone dry on the finish. A great cocktail ingredient.
Process
All Absolut Vodka is made from winter wheat, which is distilled on four story high column stills to a supremely high quality. This 96% pure vodka is then reduced using local Swedish water and a concentrated vanilla extract added.
People
Absolut was established in 1879 by Lars Olsson Smith, who wanted to challenge the city of Stockholm's liquor marketing monopoly. First sold under the name Absolut Rent Brännvin, in 1979 it was renamed Absolut Vodka. Today it is part of Pernod Ricard.
Place
Absolut practices a One Source production philosophy, meaning that all of their production takes place in and around the village of Åhus, Sweden. An impressive distillery as it makes over 100 million litres of vodka annually!
