Linie Aquavit Double Cask Port - Arcus

The line Aquavit has a combination of aromas of caraway, anise, orange peel and a touch of vanilla.

The palate starts complex with harmonious notes of caraway, which are underpinned by delicate nuances of vanilla and caramel and the aromas of dried fruit. These notes are due to the aging of this aquavit in port wine barrels. 

Production of the Linie Aquavit Double Port Cask

Linie Aquavit is distilled according to a traditional Norwegian recipe and is aged for 16 months in oak casks that were previously used as sherry casks. This gives this aquavit its particularly round and smooth character.

To this day, each Linie Aquavit barrel travels 4 of the total 16 months of maturation at sea to Australia and back, crossing the equator twice. The different temperature zones, the changing humidity, the wild sea breeze and the constant movement during the sea voyage give it its unique and unmistakable character. Afterwards, the Linie Aquavit Double Port Cask matures for at least another 6 months on land in port casks, which gives it additional flavors.
