Akvavit
''Akvavit'' or ''aquavit'' (; also ''akevitt'' in Norwegian; ''aquavit'' in English) is a distilled spirit that is principally produced in Scandinavia, where it has been produced since the 15th century. ''Akvavit'' is distilled from grain or potatoes, and is flavoured with a variety of herbs. It is also popular in Northern Germany. ''Akvavit'' gets its distinctive flavour from spices and herbs, and the dominant flavour must (according to the European Union) come from a distillate of caraway and/or dill seed. It typically contains 40% alcohol by volume or 80 proof (U.S.) The EU has established a minimum of 37.5% ABV for ''akvavit'' to be named as such. Etymology The word ''aquavit'' derives from the Latin ''aqua vitae'', "water of life." Compare the words ''whisky'' or ''whiskey'', from Gaelic ''uisce beatha'', which has the same meaning. Likewise, clear fruit brandy is called ''eau de vie'' ( French for "water of life"). Drinking culture Akvavit is an important part of Nordic d ...
