Whiskey, a strong alcoholic drink, is never 100% pure alcohol, and by law, must be diluted to a specific bottling strength. While it contains a high concentration of ethanol, the final product is a complex mixture of alcohol, water, and flavor compounds derived from its aging process.

Absolut Vodka is made exclusively from natural ingredients, with its primary component being high-quality Swedish winter wheat grown in the southern region of Åhus. This single-grain source and the pure water from a deep local well define the vodka's distinct character and heritage.
