Akademi
Absolut Akademi bottles were never sold: The Absolut Company gave them to its employees and business partners, each copy numbered. They share their name with the Absolut Akademi, which brings partners from around the world to Åhus and Stockholm to see how the vodka is made and where it comes from, and they were produced in runs of 2,520. The bottles work as a thank-you from inside the company, and their distribution shows it: some versions were reserved for top bartenders, and some copies went to those attending a collectors' meeting. Numbered and never in shops, they rarely leave the circle that received them.

2012 · 1 variant
A bottle The Absolut Company never sold: Akademi went to employees and business partners only, each copy numbered, in a run of 2,520. Two versions circulate. The standard one carries the usual Lars Olsson Smith medallion; the version reserved for top bartenders adds a personalised sticker over it, which makes every one of those a one-off.
