Linie Aquavit Liqueur is a premium Norwegian spirit celebrated for its exceptional craftsmanship and unique aging process. Distilled from high-quality potatoes and infused with a harmonious blend of Nordic herbs and spices, including caraway, star anise, and subtle citrus notes, its flavor profile is both distinctive and refined. What sets Linie apart is its extraordinary maturation: the spirit embarks on a four-month sea voyage in sherry-seasoned oak casks, crossing the equator twice. This journey enhances its complexity, imparting a smooth balance of spices, vanilla, and sherry undertones, with lingering warmth. Perfect for sipping neat, pairing with smoked or marinated seafood, or elevating classic cocktails, Linie Aquavit offers a one-of-a-kind experience rooted in over 200 years of Nordic tradition. With its golden hue and unparalleled character, it's a must-have for any connoisseur of fine spirits.
Linie Aquavit is a premium Norwegian spirit distilled from potatoes and infused with a unique blend of Nordic herbs and spices. Its signature flavors come from caraway and star anise, which are complemented by subtle hints of vanilla and sherry from the Oloroso sherry casks in which it is aged.
The name "Linie" comes from the unique maturation process the spirit undergoes. Each cask of Linie Aquavit travels on a sea voyage, crossing the Equator (or "line") twice during a four-month journey. This process, combined with fluctuating temperatures and constant movement, enhances its flavor and smoothness.
