description Absolut 100 Overview
Absolut 100 is an overproof, premium Swedish vodka produced by The Absolut Company in Åhus, Sweden.

The spirit is formulated to provide a more robust character while maintaining the clean, neutral profile desired for high-proof cocktail mixology.
help Absolut 100 FAQ
How strong is Absolut 100 compared to regular Absolut?
Absolut 100 is bottled at 50 percent alcohol by volume, which is 100 proof, versus the 40 percent ABV (80 proof) of standard Absolut. That makes it an overproof expression of the brand's core vodka.
What does the Absolut 100 bottle look like?
It comes in a distinctive matte black bottle, in contrast to the clear bottles of the main Absolut range. The black bottle makes it one of the most recognizable premium expressions on the shelf.
Where and how is Absolut 100 made?
It is produced by The Absolut Company in Åhus, Sweden, using winter wheat and continuous distillation, the same process as the rest of the Absolut portfolio. The difference is the higher bottling strength rather than a different production method.
Should I drink Absolut 100 straight or in cocktails?
At 100 proof it has noticeably more heat than standard Absolut, so it is best suited to mixed drinks where vodka needs to stand up to bold ingredients, like a Bloody Mary. Sipping it neat is a much bigger commitment than an 80-proof vodka.
