Lysholm’s Linie Aquavit 80 Proof Oak Matured Twice Across the Equator Norway 750ml

Producer Description

Linie Aquavit has been Norways most prestigious and exclusive aquavit for over 200 years. Delamain exclusively crafts Grande Champagne Cognacs. Depaz produces rhum agricolerum made from fresh cane juicethe highest-quality rum available.

An intriguing combination of caraway, aniseed and orange peel is prominent in the aroma, followed by a delicate hint of vanilla.

Oak combines with the caraway and aniseed to give great complexity, while old sherry notes give a rich, well-rounded flavour.

A well-composed aftertaste of spices and sherry lingers for a few minutes.

It all began back in 1805 when the Norwegian trade family, Lysholm, sent a potato-based aquavit to East India. Unfortunately, the interest in the product was limited and the aquavit had to make its way back to Oslo, its city of origin. However, upon its return, it was discovered that the journey had significantly enhanced its flavor and since that day, every drop of LINIE has been embarked on a four-month-long sea voyage to mature, crossing the Equator not just once, but twice. This unique maturation process is what gives LINIE its distinctive taste and has made it a beloved favorite among aquavit enthusiasts worldwide.
