Svol Danish Aquavit (75cl, 40%)

Svol is a Danish-style aquavit made in Brooklyn, New York, on an unaged grain spirit distilled at New York Distilling Co. It is clear and unaged, bottled at 40% in a 75cl bottle. Caraway leads, in the classic Danish manner, with angelica root, birch bark, lemon, gooseberry and rose hip layered around it for a savoury-sweet botanical character. It is meant to be served ice-cold, or stirred into savoury cocktails where gin or vodka would be too neutral. Caraway spice and citrus come first, then herbal depth from angelica and birch, and a clean, warming finish.
