Description
Lysholm Linie Aquavit 1L, 41.5% is a classic Norwegian aquavit with a unique maturation story and a distinctive herbal-spiced character. Known internationally as Linie Aquavit, this spirit is made from potato-based alcohol and flavoured with traditional Nordic herbs and spices, giving it a dry, aromatic and food-friendly profile.
What makes Linie special is its famous sea maturation. The aquavit is aged in Oloroso sherry oak casks while travelling by ship, crossing the equator and experiencing constant movement, changing temperature and humidity. This process gives the spirit extra smoothness, roundness and subtle cask complexity.
At 41.5%, Lysholm Linie Aquavit offers a bold but balanced flavour profile, with caraway, star anise, herbs, light vanilla, sherry sweetness, oak and gentle spice. The 1L bottle size makes it especially practical for home bars, restaurants, Scandinavian food pairings and customers looking for a traditional aquavit in a larger format.
