Bareksten Botanical Aquavit 750ml

Bareksten Botanical Aquavit is a Norwegian spirit built on the traditional caraway-and-dill backbone of Scandinavian aquavit, distilled in small batches by the Bareksten Distillery. It leans heavily botanical, adding coriander and citrus peel alongside the caraway core rather than following the older, heavily cask-aged Nordic style. The nose is bright with dill and citrus, the palate carries a clean caraway spice with coriander underneath, and the finish is crisp rather than sweet. It's a good fit for anyone who already likes gin and wants to try a spirit built around caraway instead of juniper, or for building a proper Scandinavian-style cocktail list.

How to drink Bareksten Botanical Aquavit

Serve it well-chilled in a small glass, the traditional Scandinavian way, alongside pickled or smoked fish. It also stands in for gin in a Martini if you want something spicier and more savory.
