O.P. Anderson Aquavit Original 40% vol. 1 l is Sweden’s oldest and most time-honoured aquavit – a true classic that has come to symbolise togetherness, enjoyment and living tradition ever since it was first created. Originally created in 1891 for the Gothenburg Exhibition, this aquavit was named by Carl August Anderson in honour of his father, Olof Peter Anderson. Olof Peter, born in 1797 in Västergötland, was a prominent entrepreneur, shipowner and owner of a liqueur factory, whose vision laid the foundations for a Swedish success story that continues to this day.


O.P. Anderson Original Aquavit is characterised by its classic blend of caraway, aniseed and fennel – the three spices that have since come to define Swedish aquavit culture. The harmonious combination of these ingredients, coupled with careful distillation and cask maturation, results in an aromatically complex, finely balanced aquavit with an unmistakable character. It is now produced at the modern O.P. Anderson Distillery in Sundsvall in northern Sweden, where traditional copper stills are combined with state-of-the-art distillation technology. The distillery adheres to a sustainable philosophy with the aim of achieving zero waste, whilst ensuring that the original recipe and traditional flavour remain unchanged.

O.P. Anderson Aquavit Original is a versatile companion in Scandinavian gastronomic culture – traditionally served well chilled with herring, salmon, caviar, prawns or smoked fish, where its herbal spiciness harmonises perfectly with the salty flavours. It is also ideal for modern cocktail creations, such as a Nordic Mule, Aquavit Sour or Scandi Martini, where it forms an aromatic, characterful base. Whether for festive occasions, cosy get-togethers or new creative drinks – this aquavit embodies a sense of togetherness, craftsmanship and the authentic spirit of Sweden.
