If you’ve not heard of Flävar just yet, then chances are you will have by the end of 2023. The Swedish schnapps brand landed in many UK venues from May onwards, most notably cementing a place for itself on the Wetherspoons bar where 15,000 shots of each flavour are being poured out every week! So, what is it that’s captivated British drinkers?
Set up beside the easy-on-the-eye Lake Boren in southern Sweden, Flävar uses some of the freshest water anywhere to craft award-winning vodka with indulgent flavours. Railing against, “memories of garish neon glittery shots slammed back in the student union” as founder Rolf Munding put it, these 25% ABV schnapps are not only delicious, but super smooth, stylish, clear, and crisp. The distinctive and nostalgic herbal schnapps taste anchors the sweetness of their current three flavours in what appears to be a winning combo!
Inspired by traditional Swedish flavours, there’s Strawberry and Lime for a succulent and vibrant taste of summer, then bittersweet warmth of Raspberry and Liquorice and Salted Caramel, praised for its moreish sweet and salty character. With Blueberry and Lemon on the horizon as well as a fleet of other new flavours, Flävar looks like it’s here to stay.
If you want to see what all the fuss is about for yourself, you can expect to see Flävar on supermarket shelves soon, but until then you can order a 700m bottle from their website here for £19.99.
