Icon 1 Who
Produced by Downtime Cocktails, a company founded by three friends: Matthew Arkin, Marc Marosi, and Bruce Glassman. 
Icon 2 Where
Batch 22 American Aquavit is produced through a multi-state process that combines a Missouri-distilled base with final processing in California.
Icon 3 What
Batch 22 American Aquavit is a smooth, citrus-forward spirit that departs from the heavy, licorice like flavors often found in traditional Scandinavian aquavits. It is designed to be more approachable, often described as falling somewhere between a spiced vodka and an herbal gin. Unlike many clear aquavits, Batch 22 has a deep golden straw color resulting from its specific botanical infusion process.
Icon 4 Why
The spirit's origin story is tied to Hollywood; co-founder Matthew Arkin is the son of the late Academy Award-winning actor Alan Arkin. The recipe was inspired by a unique, unlabeled spirit Matthew tasted while visiting his father on a film set in Eastern Europe in the late 1970s. Because of its savory and botanical backbone, it pairs exceptionally well with foods that are salty, smoked, or pickled, such as smoked fish, oysters, or strong cheeses. All good reasons to us!
