jesperk > Absolut 72 Bian (China, 2010). Absolut Vodka launches its first-ever Chinese Limited Edition Absolut 72 Bian, in collaboration with the Chinese avant-garde artist Gao Yu. The name Absolut 72 Bian was inspired by the ancient Chinese mythical figure, the Monkey King. Bian means "transform" in Chinese, and refers to the 72 transformations the Monkey King undertakes to overcome all kinds of obstacles on a pilgrimage aimed at achieving Buddhahood. Gao Yu created surreal, cartoon-like features to this classical figure to express a unique and distinctive fusion of traditional and modern art. He gave a traditional Chinese panda the ability to transform himself into the Monkey King amidst smoky red clouds. At the focal point of the design are the words "Absolut" and (in Chinese) "72 Bian" written in distinctive Chinese red reflecting the style of the modern culture. 360,000 bottles produced.

The hand-engraved design depicts a native American Shaman woman holding a power quartz (dream) crystal, surrounded by an eagle spirit with classic American figures and symbols from the past, present, and future (Marilyn Monroe, the Space Shuttle, the Pyramid with All-Seeing Eye, etc.). The images have been designed and hand-engraved by David Sugar and Carol Iselin of Inner Light Crystal. The bottle comes with a beautiful sterling silver cap, intended to be a shot glass, with an inlaid lapiz lazuli gemstone (the other bottles had various colored semi-precious stones). The bottle medallion, name plate, and medallions found on the handles are made of sterling silver. The box itself is of solid, flame-burled oak and burled ash, lined with blue silk velvet. Bottle #1 originally belonged to Michel Roux, President of Carillon Importers Ltd., bottle #2 went to the President of V&S in Sweden, bottle #3 went to former U.S. President Bill Clinton, etc.

jesperk > Personal letter from David Sugar, creator of the Absolut American. The letter reads: "Hello Jesper, In response to your letter e-mail (10-9-09) here are some answers to your questions. Michelle Roux asked us to create an image and set of engravings to commemorate the 500th anniversary regarding the discovery of America in 1492. Carol and I decided to create an image of a Native American Shaman woman. She is depicted holding a Power Quartz Crystal. Her figure is surround by an Eagle spirit. Many of the smaller images around the Eagle are iconic classic American figures and symbols (Marilyn Monroe, the Space Shuttle, and the pyramid with all seeing eye). The sterling silver cap is intended to be a shot glass. The blue gemstone in your cap is lapis lazuli. The others had various other colored stones inlaid in the caps. Absolut was very involved with this project. They sent Carillon Imp. (M. Roux) 55 naked filled bottles, with no painted labels. These were intended specifically for the Absolut American Limited Edition. The edition was 50 bottles. The other 5 were for samples and Artist Proof. Absolut was fully aware of this project. I hope this answers your questions about this bottle. Regards, David Sugar."

The design is inspired by the visual language of the 1960s, an era in which the space race and traveling to the moon captivated the world. "Each visual element has its place," Wagner explains. "The astronaut is a recurring visual element in my work, and it creates intrigue to the overall piece. With an empty speech bubble I give a voice to the astronaut, but I let the audience decide what he says. There are also celestial bodies, UFOs and the all-seeing eye, which represents a person looking at the world from another dimension or place in time."

jesperk > Absolut Brooklyn (USA, 2010). Capturing the vibrancy, diversity and rich heritage of New York City’s most celebrated borough, Absolut Brooklyn features an invigorating blend of red apple and ginger replete in a specially-designed bottle reminiscent of the ubiquitous “Brooklyn Stoop Life.” Designed in collaboration with Spike Lee, the bottle is a colorful depiction of the stoop where the Brooklyn-bred auteur grew up – #165. Harkening back to the decades-long notion that the stoop is truly the epicenter of creativity, culture and community, the bottle serves as homage to that Brooklyn ideal of stoop life – where memories are made and ideas are sparked through conversation and camaraderie. Other subtle nods include Brooklyn nicknames on the steps of the stoop and a line from a love letter to Brooklyn, written by spoken word poet and Brooklynite Lemon Andersen. In addition, the Lars Olsson Smith seal, never before altered on the iconic Absolut bottle, has been “Spiked” – Lars wears a baseball cap and glasses evocative of Spike Lee. The fourth edition in the Absolut Vodka city-series.

Each bottle has a subtle silver-grey metallic coating, inspired by Victorian medicine flasks. The text has been pared down to the minimum required and the logo on the bottle incorporates the alchemic symbol for distillation. The Herbaceous Lemon (shown here) is a dead ringer for fresh lemon verbena; the Smokey Tea, is intensely complex, with a gently smokey flavor that comes from an infusion of Lapsang Souchong tea and is complemented with notes of orange peel, clove, and ginger; and finally the Bitter Cherry, whose subtle hint of sweetness and bright, authentic cherry flavor is countered by notes of bitter, dark chocolate. Limited to just 3000 9L cases (1000 9L cases for each flavor) in total production, available only to select bars and mixology accounts in the U.S., U.K., and Sweden.

jesperk > Absolut Cut (Canada, United Kingdom, Australia). In April 2004, Absolut increased its brand assortment with Absolut Cut, a flavored alcoholic beverage (FAB) and ready-to-drink (RTD) product. The bottle shares the iconic neck and shoulders of the legendary Absolut Vodka bottle with distinctive 'cuts' etched into the glass. Absolut Cut, the first flavor consisting of sparkling citrus flavors (lime, orange and mandarin) was launched in 2005. During 2005-2006, three line extensions were developed: Absolut Sharp Cut (grapefruit and cranberry), launched in Canada as the first line extension, followed by Absolut Clear Cut (mandarin and kiwi) and Absolut Crisp Cut (apple and lime). The products (sold in Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia) were not produced in Åhus, but by Co-packers in three different plants: 1. Interbrew, Lakeport, Canada (production started in 2004). 2. Thomas Hardy Burtonwood Breweries, United Kingdom (production started in May 2005). 3. Contract Bottling Company (CBC), New Zealand (production started in August 2005). The alcohol strength was 7% in Canada and 5% in the United Kingdom and Australia. Despite its success in Australia, the product was pulled off the market in March 2007 (the products were phased out during 2006-2007), less than three years after its launch, starting in Canada (already in November 2005), then the United Kingdom followed by Australia.

jesperk > Absolut Gustafson (2012). Following the success of Absolut Flavor of the Tropics and Absolut Watkins, the world's leading premium vodka brand now presents another exciting new flavor in the global duty free market designed exclusively for travelers. In collaboration with world-renowned fashion artist and illustrator Mats Gustafson, the bottle features a dramatic green and bright pink horizon, painted with his characteristic, masterfully light-handed, sensual brush strokes. Mats Gustafson explains, "The pink represents the berries, the green the cardamon and the more earthy qualities. The final artwork combines these two color blocks and, for me, they translate into the earth and the sky. The horizon is a great metaphor for traveling, for looking far and beyond." The flavor consists of cherries, strawberries and warm notes of cardamon and chai. Unfortunately, the product launch was cancelled shortly after its release. In March 2012, TAC issued the following notice: --- Thanks for your email and your interest in ABSOLUT VODKA. We have received indications that in a minor number of cases, the consumer experience of ABSOLUT GUSTAFSON would not be to the exceptional level that the ABSOLUT brand prides itself with as a small number of people may react to the intense scent of the product. We value all our consumers alike, and at ABSOLUT we only want to offer exceptional experiences. Despite the fact that the product is safe to drink, fulfills all regulatory requirements and does not contain any allergens, we have therefore made the decision not to go ahead with a launch of the product.

The bottle represents a unique take on London's style and fashion pioneers over the past 200 years. Set against the London skyline, the design introduces key characters from the past that in each their way have influenced and shaped the city's present fashion scene. The seven characters span from Dickensian and 18th Century Dandy, through to British Pinstripe gent, a 60s dollybird, SKA, Punk and 80s Casual, all executed in Hewlett's signature style.

jesperk > Absolut Mandrin (1999). The Absolut Mandrin bottle was designed by Pearlfisher International Design Partners of London and created by Rexam Glass (formerly PLM Glass Industry, acquired by Rexam in 1999), which created the earlier flavored vodka bottle designs. Pearlfisher designers began with the premise that the bottle had to look familiar, connecting it with the existing Absolut flavored vodka brand image. The key to the successful illusion is a combination of a frosted bottle and an exaggerated, orange-colored punt (base pad printing). The consumer viewing the bottle sees a half-round orange glow through the frosting which creates the whimsical idea that there is a real mandarin orange inside the bottle. The design involved both heightening the punt of the bottle and coloring it. Raising the punt meant slightly adjusting the bottle's size to ensure that the volume of the contents was not affected.

This original design is part of the “In an Absolut World” advertising campaign, and is meant to suggest that the outside appearance should be eclipsed by what is inside. The bottle was launched in the Travel Retail segment and certain other markets in June 2009, with a global launch following in September 2009. This lineup includes the rare 750ml, a 43% version (South Africa) with an incorrect proof (should have read 86 proof), along with the French and the standard version. Note: South African liquor legislation insists that vodka be sold with an alcohol content of 43%. In order to import vodka into South Africa, international distillers have to produce a South Africa-specific version of their spirit, even if it's sold at 40% elsewhere.

jesperk > Absolut Orient Apple (2011). This is the "core" (permanent) edition of Absolut Brooklyn. The unique flavor brings together the natural fresh sweetness of apple and a subtle hint of the darker, complex spiciness of ginger. The bottle features a beautifully carved golden apple surrounded by an aura of white shimmering, transparent ginger leaves. When full, the golden apple appears to be floating due to the lens effect of the bottle.

jesperk > Renat Bordsbrännvin. The name "Absolut" was introduced in 1879 by the entrepreneur Randi Ptolemy Lars Olsson Smith (or as we know him, L.O. Smith). Smith introduced fractional distillation that produces liquor without fusel alcohol in Sweden in 1877, under the name "Tiodubbelt Renadt Brännvin" (Tenfold Purified Vodka). The name was changed to "Absolut Rent Brännvin" (Absolutely Pure Vodka) by Smith to market his much improved product. Smith challenged the city of Stockholm's liquor market monopoly with his vodka. It was sold at a lower price than the monopoly's product, just outside the city border. Smith even offered free boat rides to the distillery and "Rent Brännvin" made Smith a fortune. In 1917, the alcohol industry in Sweden was monopolized by the Swedish government. Vodka was then sold nationwide under the name "Absolut Rent Brännvin." The name changed with intervals, Renat Brännvin or Absolut Rent Brännvin. In 1979, the old name Absolut was picked up when Absolut Vodka was introduced in the United States through Carillon Importers Ltd. in New York.

jesperk > Sundsvall Vodka by V&S Vin & Sprit AB (1997-2000) - the precursor to Absolut Level. The launch and failure of Sundsvall Vodka illustrate the difficulties of competing in the U.S. super-premium vodka segment. The product was launched by Seagram in 1997 to fight against the new premium brands that were cutting into sales of its Absolut brand. Sundsvall was named after a town in northern Sweden where it was distilled in partnership with Absolut Vodka, because the company hoped that drinkers would identify with a folksy-sounding town connected to the vodka's origins. To ensure a separate identity for Sundsvall, Absolut Vodka took the brand's advertising account to Boston-based Arnold Communications, bypassing Absolut's long-time agency, TBWA Chiat/Day, and made no reference to Absolut anywhere in its marketing materials. Sundsvall was positioned as a two-grain vodka with a two-tiered distillation process, coming from "a country with centuries of vodka-making experience." The vodka was launched with a series of VIP tastings. While other super-premiums were rolled out nationwide, the strategy for Sundsvall was to target eight trendsetting cities: Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, Miami, New York and San Francisco. The brand hosted dinners in the cities' restaurants known for their "upscale trendsetting" clientele from the worlds of art, philanthropy, business and government. Additionally, Seagram sent bottles of Sundsvall, along with a sipping glass, to 125 consumers in each of the eight markets. Sundsvall made its debut in bars and restaurants in the Fall of 1998. The vodka was deemed quite good by many bartenders, but the bottle - a clear barrel with an orange shrink-wrapped top - was viewed by servers and distributors as too plain and "too discrete where it was competing." The brand was often behind its rivals in terms of getting the attention of media and opinion leaders. Moreover, Seagram failed to implement a comprehensive bartender education plan. Unable to leverage the Absolut connection, many Seagram sales reps found it difficult to promote the brand, as many retailers had never heard of Sundsvall. Because "in the U.S. you get one chance to succeed, not two", Sundsvall was pulled from the market in December 2000. Source: Advertising Age (1998, Vol. 69, Issue 37).

Sundsvall was named after a town in northern Sweden where it was distilled in partnership with Absolut Vodka, because the company hoped that drinkers would identify with a folksy-sounding town connected to the vodka's origins. To ensure a separate identity for Sundsvall, Absolut Vodka took the brand's advertising account to Boston-based Arnold Communications, bypassing Absolut's long-time agency, TBWA Chiat/Day, and made no reference to Absolut anywhere in its marketing materials. Sundsvall was positioned as a two-grain vodka with a two-tiered distillation process, coming from "a country with centuries of vodka-making experience." The vodka was launched with a series of VIP tastings. While other super-premiums were rolled out nationwide, the strategy for Sundsvall was to target eight trendsetting cities: Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, Miami, New York and San Francisco. The brand hosted dinners in the cities' restaurants known for their "upscale trendsetting" clientele from the worlds of art, philanthropy, business and government. Additionally, Seagram sent bottles of Sundsvall, along with a sipping glass, to 125 consumers in each of the eight markets. Sundsvall made its debut in bars and restaurants in the Fall of 1998. The vodka was deemed quite good by many bartenders, but the bottle - a clear barrel with an orange shrink-wrapped top - was viewed by servers and distributors as too plain and "too discrete where it was competing." The brand was often behind its rivals in terms of getting the attention of media and opinion leaders. Moreover, Seagram failed to implement a comprehensive bartender education plan. Unable to leverage the Absolut connection, many Seagram sales reps found it difficult to promote the brand, as many retailers had never heard of Sundsvall. Because "in the U.S. you get one chance to succeed, not two", Sundsvall was pulled from the market in December 2000. Source: Advertising Age (1998, Vol. 69, Issue 37).

jesperk > Absolut Svea (Sweden, 2011). Absolut Svea was designed and dedicated to the Swedish home market. The designer, Fredrik Söderberg, interpreted the "Swedish character" with various references to the ancient Nordic tradition. The front and back of the bottle represent the summer and winter solstice. Around the bottle, you can follow a story line that runs from spring to winter, and just like in the old Nordic stories, the Midgard Serpent embraces the story. The details have different meanings that refer to the Swedish mentality. Svea is a Swedish female personal name, an old plural genitive form meaning "of the Swedes" or the Swea. It appears in Svea rike meaning "kingdom of the Swedes" (Swea Region), an older form of Sverige, the Swedish name for Sweden. Mother Svea (Swedish: Moder Svea) is the female personification of Sweden and a patriotic emblem of the Swedish nation. Same flavor as Absolut Brooklyn and Absolut Orient Apple, but only sold in the Swedish market.

jesperk > Absolut Unique (2012). Absolut Vodka had to do a complete re-engineering of the company's production line for this product launch. Described as "carefully orchestrated randomness," the process involved setting up splash guns and color-generating machines programmed with complex coating, pattern and placement algorithms to ensure that no two bottles are alike. 35 bright colors were used, and 51 abstract patterns were applied to a total of 3.98 million bottles. A striking look was achieved by color contrasts and a white label that features each bottle's unique number. Absolut Vodka estimates that, theoretically, "94 quintillion uniquely designed bottles could be produced before two identical ones appear. That's more than 13 billion bottles per person on the planet."

jesperk > Absolut glass sculpture on lighted pedestal with wooden crate (Sweden, 2001) - # 107/500 This glass item was created by the glass artist and designer Anna Örnberg and manufactured exclusively for Absolut Vodka in a limited and numbered series of 500 items. The glass item is sand cast at Studioglas Strömbergshyttan, a small yet well-reputed glass studio, where one works mainly with manually produced glass and advanced glassblowing techniques. Artistic quality and skilled craftsmanship demands are high. The glass studio is run by the three Glassblowing Masters (Mikael Axenbrant, Håkan Gunnarsson and Leif Persson). Together they represent vast experience and great knowledge in the transformation of glowing molten glass into sparkling glass items - solid yet so fragile. Sand casting is an ancient technique, which involves the creation of a separate sand mould for each item produced. In other words, the bottle was first shaped using oil moistened, fine-grained sand that has been allowed to dry and become hard, before the molten glass is poured into the mould. It is heavy and hot work requiring great accuracy and timed precision. The sand mould is then stored for two days in a temperature-regulated oven, as the glass slowly cools down to room temperature.

Absolut Crystal is a creative collaboration between Absolut Vodka, the Swedish design duo Skogsberg & Smart, and the world class craftsmen at Reijmyre Glassworks. Ten people work on each Absolut Crystal bottle. Every step in the process requires great craftsmanship and accuracy. From making the mold, to picking up and blowing the glowing liquid mass into the mold, and when cooled off, cutting it by hand. The cutting process is painstakingly slow and one day's work will result in a maximum of five bottles. To emphasize the fact that each bottle is unique, they are numbered by hand. The bottle and hand-cut glasses are fitted into a black genuine leather casket, which also includes a funnel for filling the bottle with Absolut Vodka.

The cutting process is painstakingly slow and one day's work will result in a maximum of five bottles. To emphasize the fact that each bottle is unique, they are numbered by hand. The bottle and hand-cut glasses are fitted into a black genuine leather casket, which also includes a funnel for filling the bottle with Absolut Vodka.

jesperk > Absolut Rent Brännvin. The name "Absolut" was introduced in 1879 by the entrepreneur Randi Ptolemy Lars Olsson Smith (or as we know him, L.O. Smith). Smith introduced fractional distillation that produces liquor without fusel alcohol in Sweden in 1877, under the name "Tiodubbelt Renadt Brännvin" (Tenfold Purified Vodka). The name was changed to "Absolut Rent Brännvin" (Absolutely Pure Vodka) by Smith to market his much improved product. Smith challenged the city of Stockholm's liquor marketing monopoly with his vodka. It was sold at a lower price than the monopoly's product, just outside the city border. Smith even offered free boat rides to the distillery and "Rent Brännvin" made Smith a fortune. In 1917, the alcohol industry in Sweden was monopolized by the Swedish government. Vodka was then sold nationwide under the name "Absolut Rent Brännvin." The name changed with intervals, Renat Brännvin or Absolut Rent Brännvin. In 1979, the old name Absolut was picked up when Absolut Vodka was introduced in the United States through Carillon Importers Ltd. in New York.
