Lysholm Linie 41.5% 0.5L PET*

Norwegian Linie Aquavit is famous for its unique voyage, a tradition which has played a significant role in the maturation of Linie for more than 200 years. In 1780 Catharina Lysholm built the vessel “Trondhiems Prøve” in collaboration with her brother, an important tradesman. In 1805 the ship left for the East Indies, with a cargo of potato spirit and other types of merchandise. Five casks of the spirit remained unsold and were sent back to Norway in 1807. On their return, it was discovered that the flavour of this well-traveled aquavit had become more smooth and the taste enhanced by the journey. Linie Aquavit was born. To this day, every bottle of Linie Aquavit carries details of its four month sea voyage in sherry casks. On the back of the label you will find the date of departure, the date it returned after crossing the equator twice, and the name of the ship.
