Spirit of Hven is the whiskey burey on Ven island in Sweden. If your tipple is whisky, then Spirit of Hven Backafallsbyn is a must. The resort with a four-star hotel, restaurant and a distillery producing one of Sweden's premier whisky offers regular tastings (or vodka, or gin). The centre offers weekend packages and a wide range of activities around Ven. The Spirit of Hven distillery started as one of the world's smallest pot still distilleries, with everything from mashing to fermentation, distilling, oak barrel storage and bottling taking place under the same roof. Today they export whisky, vodka, gin and akvavit to around 40 on the island of Hven in Öresund, they have been distilling world-class spirits since 2008. The idea was born with Anja and Henric Molin ten years earlier. They had then realized that Hven has optimal conditions for spirit production. The island's location between the two shores of the strait, the nutrient-rich soil and the mild microclimate all contribute to the complexity that characterizes the drinks.
