Koskenkorva, or Kossu as it usually is called, is a very high quality clear vodka from Finland. Distilled about 200 times (no, not an error), this is produced from spring water, very little of sugar and barley from the distillery's own fields, resulting in an exceedingly pure vodka. Roughly 18,200 grains of premium barley are used in creating just one ½ litre bottle of Koskenkorva. This beverage was named after the small village of Koskenkorva in Ostrobothnia, the place where the distillation took place. Koskenkorva was distilled and produced, with the idea that the drink could be enjoyed both sipped at ambient temperature from a pocket flask and, in a more sophisticated manner, as chilled schnapps. Koskenkorva is not produced for storage in cellars; it can be enjoyed immediately. It will keep almost forever in an unopened bottle – however, as practice has demonstrated, this seems to be possible solely in theory! Kossu is at its best when cold, but can be also mixed for example with Coke (which is then called "Kossukola"), with carbonated water ("Kossuvissy"), orange juice ("screwdriver"), energy drink ("Kossu Battery" or "Virtanen").

Lysholm Linie akvavit, the ultimate Norwegian aquavit, famous for its maturation in oak sherry casks at sea, a journey that has continued for moe than 200 years. This remarkable story started in 1805 when the Lysholm family sent a ship frrom Norway to East-Asia loaded with goods, including five casks of akvavit. Luckily the aquavit was not sold and by its return they found out that exposing the casks to the constant rolling of the waves and shifting weather conditions had transformed the aquavit, the result being a perfectly balanced aquavit, amber colour and round flavours where caraway and aniseed are the most dominant. Including caraway, dill and fennel with a touch of Seville orange. On the label of each bottle you can see the vessel, dates and a map of the journey the aquavit has made! One to be savoured.

Marshals Drink/Shot is a flavored vodka of Finnish origin, served as a schnapps. The drink is named after Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim, the Marshal of Finland.According to all sources it is important that the glass where the drink is served is poured as full as possible (to the point where surface tension keeps some of the drink in the glass); the glass is then to be emptied without spilling. This practice is said to originate in the Chevalier Guard where Mannerheim once served; every man was entitled one shot of Vodka per day, and through this practice everyone was assured the equal maximum amount. The ingredients of the mixture have been up for debate for almost 50 years, and the original ingredients are not even available anymore. According to some sources the drink is to be made of unflavoured alcohol, sweet vermouth and gin. A must-have with Marskin Vorschmack. Must be served ice-cold. Alcohol by volume 40 % -
