The dill did not come in as strong as hoped.
The cloves are very strong.
It is aquavit.
And far cheaper than Linie.
A happy experiment.
Next batch I will skip the cloves.

I may have to try that. Any particular opinions on the neutral grain spirit to use as the base?
ReplyDeleteI used Russian Standard. It's my go-to for vodka.
DeleteSome recipes I've seen recommend crushing the dill in a mortar and pestle to facilitate more intense infusion. Maybe try that and back off the cloves by 50% to 75% instead of eliminating them? I dunno, I'd have to taste it to have a worthwhile opinion.
ReplyDeleteIsn't the main flavoring in aquavit caraway?
ReplyDeleteYup. There's caraway in this. And fennel.
DeleteBut it's dominated by the cloves.
I was aiming for caraway and dill with dill on the front.
