About the cocktail

About the cocktail

This is your captain speaking. Please return your seat to the upright position and fasten your seatbelt – this classic cocktail is cleared for takeoff.

Named for its sky-blue hue, thanks to a touch of crème de violette, the Aviation hails from the early days of aeronautics – when flying was a glamorous luxury reserved for the few. Originating in the 1910s, this cocktail carries with it the spirit of the Art Deco era: think DC-3 aircraft, tailored suits, and the golden age of flight. We can’t say for sure if Howard Hughes was a fan, but we’re confident he would’ve approved.

Njord Distilled Mother Nature's round, deep and creamy character is the perfect copilot for this journey. Furthermore the cherry notes of maraschino and the floral lift of Créme de Violet come together in this drink that’s both nostalgic and unexpectedly refined. Don’t be alarmed by its subtle lavender notes and tint – just shake, sip, and let this heavenly Njord rendition lift your spirits sky-high.

About the gin

About the gin

The potato distillate gives this gin a round, deep and creamy character that perfectly matches the mild sweetness and mellow bitterness created by the botanicals used. Mother Nature is subdued elegance. Under the simple surface lie many layers that slowly emerge, taking you deeper and deeper into the Danish nature.
