Aalborg Taffel Akvavit Reviews

Denmark as we love it!

Good, very clean, mellow and refreshing Akvavit. Citrus and caraway. Some dill? Drink as schapps or combined with smoked and/or pickled or cured fish (herring, salmon, mackrel), smoked pork dishes, cold meat cuts etc. In my opinion Aalborg is best served chilled, but not freezer cold. Very nice!

How does it compare to the clear in the green bottle?

30+ years ago our family drank the clear Aalborg Aquavit in the green bottle with red label. Can't find that one any more...for a while there was a clear aquavit in a clear bottle with a red/white label, but that is impossible to find too. How does this compare? Anybody know...?

When asked my secret of living to 96 I say Aalborg Akvavit. I remember my Norwegian Grandfather bringing it of of the "ice box" (pre freezer days) and serving shots to the adults. Then one day I was at a bar and the bartender said "I want you to try something new" (to United States) and he pushed a shot over to me and I was hooked.

Known to most adult danes (over 30) as ´Red Aalborg´and you dont have to eat Herring with this... try gorgonzola on bread with an egg yolk, shrimp with mayo and lemon. One thing that always suits a glas of ´red Aalborg´is cold beer :-)
By the way, serve it from the fridge - Not the freezer.

This is the real stuff, not rebottled in the US. As others have said, store it in the freezer.

Tried this on a cruise 1 september 2012 on the Baltic. Found it very relaxing and very stimulating. I bought 2 bottles of taffel when in aalborg, but take care as it can creep up on you.

First tasted this in Sweden in 1965 with herring marinated by a local Grandmother. Wonderful. We use it as a special treat with Scottish marinated sweet herring. Put Akvavitt in freezer in advance and have thimblefuls with each mouthful. Sometimes (helangore?) "all at once".
