Lime Vodka (700 ml)

Lars Olsson Smith distilled his first Absolut Rent Brännvin in 1879, and the philosophy of uncompromising grain purity has governed every litre produced at Destilleriet i Åhus since. Absolut Lime is built on that same foundation: 100% Skåne winter wheat from

roughly 400 farms within the Åhus community, mashed, fermented with a proprietary Swedish cultivated yeast to 9–10% ABV over approximately 48 hours, then driven through a multi-column continuous rectification system — stripping column, copper-packed

rectification column for sulphur catalysation, extraction column for aldehyde removal, and a split 26-metre main rectification column — to reach ~96% ABV before dilution to 40% ABV with water drawn from on-site wells more than 140 metres deep, filtered through Swedish bedrock over millennia.

The Skåne plain's fertile soils yield wheat at roughly twice the global average per hectare, and that agricultural density translates directly into a soft, slightly sweet cereal base. What distinguishes Absolut categorically is its deliberate refusal of charcoal or chemical post-distillation filtration — a technically bold stance that preserves the wheat's natural grain texture most competitors strip away.

The lime character is layered onto this unfilitered grain foundation, delivering sharp citrus zest against a genuinely textured mouthfeel rather than the neutral canvas typical of filtered vodkas.
