Sheringham Akvavit

Sheringham Akvavit is made by Sheringham Distillery on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, as a Pacific Northwest take on the centuries-old Nordic akvavit tradition. Distiller Jason developed the recipe after tasting widely to settle on the profile he wanted. The botanicals bring dill, caraway, anise and citrus, joined by locally and sustainably harvested winged kelp that adds a subtle hint of the ocean. The distillery lists awards for it at the Canadian Artisan Spirits Competition and the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Bottled at 42% ABV in a 750ml bottle.

Tasting Notes: Dill, caraway, anise and citrus with a light saline, sea-air edge from the kelp.

Serve: Traditionally chilled as a sipper; also works in an akvavit and tonic highball.
