New Alchemy Distilling

Fylleangst Aquavit

Download

Matt and Jason chose the name Fylleangst for their aquavit as a playful nod to the Scandinavian drinking culture. A word with no true English interpretation, Fylleangst refers to the feeling of concern brought about by reflecting on one’s behavior after a night of heavy drinking. Distilled from a base of wheat and malted rice, the pair spent the better part of a year developing a uniquely west coast, savory interpretation of this classic Scandinavian staple. Fylleangst is vapor distilled with toasted caraway, coriander, cumin, anise, fenugreek, summer savory, and lemongrass (to name a few). Like all of our spirits it is carefully made to stand out when enjoyed neat while also carrying enough flavor with it to be mixed in cocktails. As a real Scandinavian might exclaim, our Aquavit may be the finest. And in fact, judges at the 2020 San Francisco World Spirits Competition recognized Fylleangst as Best in Class with a Double Gold medal.
