Sometimes the best snaps isn't the one everyone already knows, but the one that makes the lunch table pause for a moment. Fary Lochan Valnødsnaps is exactly that kind of bottle, round and thoughtful, far from the sweet, floral classics.
The Expert's Description
Fary Lochan Valnødsnaps is a Danish snaps bottled at 36% ABV from the Fary Lochan distillery in Farre near Give.
Fary Lochan builds its snaps range around a single, clear ingredient theme per bottle, the same philosophy behind the distillery's well-known single malt whisky, where every choice of raw material and method should be clearly felt in the glass. The distillery, based in the small village of Farre, is today a family-owned company with around 400 shareholders behind it.
In Valnødsnaps, it's fresh walnuts that set the course. They give a round, clean nutty flavour, which the distillery itself highlights as a snaps that's welcome to stand out on the lunch table once the more traditional akvavits have already made the rounds.
Tasting Notes

Round nutty aroma of fresh walnuts with a light trace of wood.
Palate
Clean, distinctive walnut flavour with a soft, round body and a hint of bitterness in the background.
Finish
Medium in length, nutty and lightly dry, with the walnut's bitterness the last thing to fade.
