Absolut Blue Vodka

Absolut Vodka is one of the best-known Vodkas in the world. It is a Swedish Vodka produced exclusively from natural ingredients, and unlike some other Vodkas, it does not contain sugar. In fact Absolut is as clean as Vodka can be. Still, it has a certain flavor: rich, full-bodied and complex, at once smooth and velvety with a distinct grain character, followed by a hint of dried fruit. In 1879, Lars Olsson Smith introduced continuous distillation with which he made Absolut Rent Brännvin. Instead of the usual three or four times, this Vodka is distilled an infinite number of times.

One hundred years later, it was reintroduced as Absolut. As Then, Absolut is produced in Åhus, LO Smith's hometown. Furthermore, it is the place where the wheat used to make this Vodka is grown. The way Absolut is made won't change, nor will the true flavor of the vodka. The main ingredients in Absolut Vodka are water and winter wheat. The water comes from a deep well in Åhus where it is protected from impurities. Winter wheat differs from other types: it is sown in the fall and harvested in the same season the following year. During this period it grows under the Swedish snow, thus presenting a hard grain. Furthermore, the use of fertilizers is minimized.
