Absolut Vodka

Premium vodka. Alcohol content is 40% ABV (80 proof) for the standard global expression, with some duty-free and specialty editions at 50% ABV (100 proof). The vodka is produced under a "One Source" philosophy where every seed of Swedish winter wheat is grown, every drop of water is drawn from deep underground subterranean wells naturally filtered through Swedish bedrock, and every bottle is manufactured within a single region in Southern Sweden. Distillation uses continuous distillation (fractional column distillation), passing the spirit through a continuous system hundreds of times until impurities are stripped away. The vodka is 100% certified additive-free with no sugar, glycerin, citric acid, or industrial smoothing agents added post-distillation. The appearance is completely crystal clear. Packaging is an iconic apothecary-style transparent bottle. No specific distillation column specifications, well depth, or individual wheat harvest details are provided by the producer. The expression was introduced to the global market in 1979 and is the flagship vodka of the Absolut brand.
