Norden Spirits

After a trip to Denmark resulted in his first taste of Aquavit, Norden’s founder, Robyn Cleveland, never forgot the flavors he experienced in distillates abroad. Driven by a respect for aquavit’s rich history, a desire for the ideal mixing spirit, and a dedication to producing locally, Robyn dedicated himself to sourcing the best ingredients and refining his distillation techniques, leading to the launch of Norden’s flagship ‘Taffel Style Aquavit’ in 2017. With an emphasis on organic and wild-crafted (foraged) ingredients and a base distilled from organic corn grown in the midwestern United States, Norden’s lineup continues to grow, contributing both to the rich cocktailing scene of nearby Detroit, Michigan, and the country at large.
