Aquavit tasting, 17 December 2022, aquavit #3 Nose: Floral aroma, wine fragrances, light citrus. Palate: Soft oily citrus, anise. Full creamy texture. Finish: Medium. Balanced with fruity notes. The nose on this aquavit was different to the others that were tasted on the day, having a more fruity quality, almost like a very crisp white wine. It was still quite robust, however, and showed the traditional caraway and anise in good measure, but it was well balanced and had good complexity. The palate was likewise rich and full with a rounded baking-spice profile. It was less creamy or buttery than some other aquavits. On the whole it was very enjoyable and one of my equal favourites of the day. I thought it had just enough character but was not too challenging, but bear in mind I'm very new to this style of spirit and more accomplished palates might find this one a little ordinary. "Good" : 83/100 (3.5 stars)
