Absolut Peppar Vodka (Tabasco-Infused) — 750ml | 40% ABV
The Original Savory Infusion for the Perfect Bloody Mary Launched in 1986 as the first flavored vodka in the Absolut family, Absolut Peppar was specifically designed to simplify the construction of a Bloody Mary. This premium spirit is crafted by infusing classic Absolut Vodka with a proprietary blend of natural chili pepper and jalapeño aromas, delivering the signature heat and vinegar-toned complexity of Tabasco sauce without the cloudiness of added solids.
Craftsmanship and Distillation Like all Absolut expressions, the base is distilled from winter wheat grown in Åhus, Sweden, using a continuous distillation process that achieves exceptional purity. The infusion process is strictly natural, containing no added sugars or artificial dyes. At 40% ABV (80 Proof), it maintains a robust structural backbone that stands up to heavy mixers like tomato juice, citrus, and brine.
