Mælkevejen Fury Handmade Danish Aquavit 70 cl 42%

Some aquavits whisper. Fury shouts, sending caraway to the front and a wave of tropical fruit right behind it.

The Expert's Description

Mælkevejen Fury Handmade Danish Aquavit is a Danish aquavit at 42% ABV, distilled at Mælkevejen Distillery in Svendborg.

Fury is the distillery's first release, built on more than 80 years of combined wine and spirits experience among the people behind the bottle. The idea was simple: take aquavit seriously again, without making it boring.

The base is classic Nordic caraway, but from there the flavour is pulled in an unexpected direction with pineapple, coconut, ginger, lime, fennel and lemongrass. The result is an aquavit that unites Danish tradition with a touch of tropical summer, produced in small batches with real care.
