BC Spirits "Spirits a Day" #328 - Bruinwood Distillery Akvavit

DISTILLERY NOTES

Based on early Scandinavian recipes, our akvavit (from the Latin aqua vitae or water of life) is clearly herbaceous with caraway, anise, dill and citrus. It is often promoted as an after-dinner digestive. Serve simply over ice or with a splash of water.
