Description
PREPARATION
Absolut Elyx is made with water from a deep well located in the city of Åhus that, due to its depth, is protected from impurities and winter wheat grown on a single farm in southern Sweden. The Råbelöf estate has been growing wheat since the 15th century. The region has the ideal climate to produce winter wheat, as this season is dry and cold while its summers are long and warm. It is distilled manually with a refined copper still known as Column 51, whose use dates back to 1921. Its silky texture is the result of the roots of a single wheat, with manual production and the copper catalyzing process. Copper naturally catalyzes the component traces in the alcohol, purifying the vodka and adding flavor and a much appreciated silky texture. Only a select few, who have inherited their knowledge and experience from past generations, make this luxury vodka, preserving the spirit of the ancient makers.

Winemaking
Absolut Elyx is crafted using water from a deep well in the town of Åhus, which, due to its depth, is protected from impurities, and winter wheat grown on a single estate in southern Sweden. The Råbelöf estate has been cultivating wheat since the 15th century. The region boasts the ideal climate for winter wheat production, with dry, cold winters and long, warm summers. It is hand-distilled in a refined copper still known as Column 51, which dates back to 1921. Its silky texture results from using only one type of wheat, a hand-crafted process, and copper catalysis. The copper naturally catalyzes the constituent elements in the alcohol, purifying the vodka and adding flavor and a highly prized silky texture. Only a select few, who have inherited their knowledge and expertise from past generations, craft this luxury vodka, preserving the spirit of the original makers.
