Absolut Milestones
This collection gathers the Absolut milestone bottles, made to mark the brand's own records, from sales landmarks to export anniversaries. Most were never sold: they went to the people who made Absolut, or stayed behind as markers of a moment. The 20th Anniversary bottle of 1999, engraved and made in 500 copies, went to every employee of the time, and the 40 litre of 2019 marked forty years to the day since the first case of Absolut was exported to the United States on 20 April 1979. Others celebrate volume, down to single bottles kept at the factory in Åhus.
