Aalborg Taffel Akvavit
Danish Other Spirits
Clear and focused, with caraway at the centre of the profile. Lemon peel adds freshness, while a light aniseed note brings quiet sweetness and spice beneath the herbal core. The palate is dry, direct and warming, with the botanicals carrying cleanly into a persistent finish rather than becoming heavy. Traditionally served well chilled, it is a natural companion to cured or smoked fish, pickled dishes and other Nordic fare, and it also works in savoury cocktails that call for a firm caraway character.
Tofino Distillery Psychedelic Jellyfish Absinthe 375 mL
Canadian Other Spirits
Anise leads with a bold, sweet herbal character, supported by fennel, wormwood, hyssop and lemon balm. Certified-organic botanicals give the palate a broad, aromatic shape, with cooling licorice, fresh herbs and a soft floral edge carrying into a persistent finish. The texture is generous and designed to open with dilution. For a traditional serve, add chilled water slowly over a sugar cube and allow the spirit to louche; it also brings concentrated botanical depth to absinthe-led cocktails.
LINIE Original Aquavit 750 mL
Norwegian Other Spirits
Caraway and star anise lead a dry, savoury profile, with orange peel, dried fruit and sweet spice adding breadth. A potato-based spirit is pot-distilled with Nordic herbs and spices, then matured for sixteen months in former sherry casks, including four months at sea and two crossings of the equator. The palate is smooth and composed, bringing nutmeg, citrus and gentle oak around the central caraway note. The finish is long, lightly sweet and warming. Serve chilled with rich seafood, cured fish or roast pork.
Tabb Baijiu Raw 500 mL
Chinese Other Spirits
Pineapple, apple and pear lead a lighter, fruit-forward expression of baijiu, with a fine mineral line keeping the aromas precise. The palate is smooth and gently warming, allowing the spirit's distinctive fermented-grain character to show without becoming overwhelming. Subtle savoury depth emerges through the middle before a clean, persistent finish returns to pear and mineral notes.
Yeni Rakı Âlâ 750 mL
Turkish Other Spirits
Delicate anise and wild herbs lead the nose, with green grape and peppery spice adding lift. The palate is full and velvety, balancing fruity sweetness with savoury herbal depth and a creamy texture. Sun-dried grapes and triple distillation give the spirit concentration and clarity, while oak maturation rounds its more assertive edges. The finish is long, warmly spiced and distinctly anise-led. Serve well chilled with water alongside a spread of meze, grilled fish or warmly spiced dishes.
Distillerie Castan Williams Pear Eau-de-Vie 500 mL
French Other Spirits
Ripe Williams pear fills the nose with a clean, fragrant intensity. The palate is rounded and highly aromatic, carrying fresh pear flesh, delicate floral tones and a measured warmth through a supple texture. Made from pears grown in southern France and crushed by hand to preserve their fruit character, the spirit remains pure and direct rather than sweet. The finish is long, poised and unmistakably pear-led. Serve lightly chilled as a digestif or alongside a simple pear tart.
Lucid Absinthe Supérieure 750 mL
French Other Spirits
Anise and fennel lead with clarity, followed by earthy grande wormwood, grassy herbs and a measured layer of spice. The palate is intense yet composed, with whole botanicals giving the spirit depth rather than artificial sweetness. Traditional copper-pot distillation at the historic Combier Distillery in France's Loire Valley preserves a classic, herb-driven style, while the finish remains moderately long and savoury. Serve traditionally by slowly adding cold water, with sugar optional, or use a small measure to perfume a Sazerac or Corpse Reviver No. 2.
MUJEN Original Rice Shochu
Japanese Other Spirits
Roasted grain and sweet earth lead the nose, followed by a delicate nuttiness and a restrained touch of fruit. The palate is smooth and finely rounded, with the rice base giving the spirit a clean, supple texture rather than overt sweetness. Savoury depth and gentle warmth build through the middle, while the finish remains clear, balanced and quietly aromatic. Serve neat, over ice or lengthened with chilled soda for a lighter, food-friendly drink.
Revel Cider Pleased to Meet You Rosé Vermouth
Canadian Other Spirits
Chamomile and ocean rose lift ripe cherry and Muscat fruit, with grapefruit rind and tarragon adding a bitter, herbal edge. The palate is sweet but not heavy, balancing floral richness with citrus freshness and the clean bite of wormwood. Serve chilled over ice with an orange twist, lengthen with soda, or pair with salty snacks and firm cheese.
St. George Absinthe Verte 200 mL
American Other Spirits
Intensely herbaceous, opening with spicy black licorice before moving through citrus, fresh grass and sarsaparilla. The high-proof palate is rich and viscous, with layered wormwood, fennel, star anise, mint, tarragon and lemon balm. Add a large ice cube or cool water to release the floral aroma and characteristic cloudy louche.
Mini of Mytilene Ouzo
Greek Other Spirits
Anise from Lisvorio leads the aroma, joined by aromatic herbs from Lesvos and a light mastic note from Chios. Seeds, herbs and plants are slowly distilled in traditional copper pots before the spirit is softened with water. The result is smooth and mellow, with clear anise character, layered herbal fragrance and a gently rounded finish.
iichiko Mugi Shochu 900 mL
Japanese Other Spirits
Sweet melon and watermelon aromas lead a delicate palate with pear and orchard-fruit hints. Made from selected barley, barley koji and clear water, this single-distilled honkaku shochu remains soft and clean through the finish. Enjoy it chilled, over ice, with water or in a highball; its gentle grain character also suits tempura, sushi and other savoury dishes.
Chum Churum Original Soju
South Korean Other Spirits
A clear, neutral Korean spirit made from sweet potato and tapioca, this expression is described as fresh, crisp and clean. The documented serving suggestion is chilled. A second exact-product record notes moderate alcoholic strength together with lacteous and anise notes. The neutral appearance, crisp taste and two additional recorded notes make up the available tasting profile for this soju.
