Details

For more than 200 years, LINIE has been produced according to the same botanical recipe, which includes a special blend of Nordic herbs and spices that, combined with sea maturation, gives it its distinctive flavor. Every drop of LINIE embarks on a four-month-long sea journey around the globe, where it matures in oak casks previously used for sherry.

Cask maturation for 16 months in sherry oak casks

LINIE originates from Norway and obtains its distinctive flavor through maturation in carefully selected oak casks, previously used for sherry. The casks undergo a meticulous selection process as the aquavit matures in them for a full 16 months, including four months at sea. It is the cask maturation and the long journey that develop the well-known taste of LINIE.

Extraordinarily smooth and well-balanced taste


The result is an extraordinarily smooth and well-balanced aquavit with prominent notes of caraway and star anise. The sherry remnants provide the aquavit with its golden color and subtle sweetness, while the cask itself imparts notes of wood and delicate hints of vanilla.

Created in 1805, Linie (officially called Lysholm Linie) is distilled in a pot still from potatoes, and is flavoured with a secret recipe of herbs and spices. The blend is then filled into refill oloroso-sherry casks, at which point they are sent on container ships around the world for six months, passing the equator (or linje, which gives the brand its name), twice. While some see this as nothing more than a marketing gimmick, I’ve compared spirit of the same age from casks that have spent six months at sea, and those which have spent the same amount of time ageing on the Norwegian mainland, and the different is stark – the sea-matured spirit was much softer, rounded and integrated.

    I don't think this is classed as a gin, where did you see that?
