SUNKEN 1628. SALVAGED 1961. RECREATED 2022.

THE STORY OF THE WORLDS OLDEST LIQUOR BEGINS ON AUGUST 10TH, 1628. THE SWEDISH KING GUSTAV II ADOLF´S NEW MIGHTY WARSHIP LEAVES STOCKHOLM HARBOUR FOR HER MAIDEN VOYAGE BUT SHE IS MISCONSTRUCTED AND CAPSIZES AFTER A FEW HUNDRED METERS.

A LIQUOR BOTTLE FOLLOWS THE SHIP DOWN TO THE DEPTHS AND SETTLES AMID GUNPOWDER CANNONS AND SKELETONS FOR 333 YEARS. BUT IN 1961 WHEN THE SHIP IS SALVAGED, SO IS THE BOTTLE. AND ITEM NO.02559 IS BROUGHT TO THE SURFACE AGAIN.

THE BOTTLE HAS BEEN A SECRET TO THE PUBLIC SINCE THEN. BUT WITH THE HELP OF ONE DROP WE HAVE RECREATED THE RECIPE FROM 1628. THE RESULT IS AN ANISE FLAVORED SUPERIOR WINE DISTILLATE WITH A HINT OF HISTORY.
