Lütjenburger Aquavit, referred to as Lütjenburger Lebenswasser, is produced at the traditional site in Lütjenburg. The aquavit is defined by the mild, spicy–aromatic character of caraway, which combines with a particularly fine distillate to create a straightforward and soothing spirit. It is described as embodying the distinctive spirit of the North and appears in a golden tone. It is recommended to be enjoyed ice-cold after a good meal or at room temperature whenever a Nordic-style drink is desired.
