Tasting Notes

Nose

Clean and subtly earthy — potato, vanilla, mineral.

Palate

Creamy — earthy sweetness, white pepper, rich potato mouthfeel.

Finish

Clean and medium — earth and pepper.

Bareksten is produced in Bergen, Norway, by master distiller Stig Bareksten. The vodka is made from Norwegian potatoes, distilled in a copper pot still, and bottled at 40%. It is small-batch, artisanal, and reflects meticulous attention to detail.

The nose is clean and subtly earthy: potato, vanilla, mineral freshness. The palate is creamy — earthy sweetness, white pepper, and a mouthfeel noticeably richer than grain vodka. The finish is clean and medium, with earth and pepper. A Scandinavian potato vodka with genuine craft credentials.

Worth every penny

8/10

I was reading the tasting notes in the review and thought they sounded too good to be true for a vodka, but they're accurate. The vanilla is genuinely there, the Creamy — earthy sweetness delivers, and the Clean and medium — earth and pepper is exactly as described. Served this at a tasting with friends last weekend — everyone was surprised how much character it has. We did a blind comparison against two other brands and this won hands down.

Decent everyday vodka

6/10

A reliable pour that won't blow your mind but does the job. The nose has Clean and subtly earthy — potato — the review is accurate there. The palate gives you rich potato mouthfeel, which is fine but a bit safe. I keep reaching for other bottles when I want to sip neat, but for cocktails it's hard to complain. The Clean and medium — earth and pepper is clean.
