Jaloviina

Brief Story of Jaloviina Spirit

Jaloviina is a unique Finnish spirit drink that has no direct substitute anywhere in the world. It was introduced on the market in 1932, immediately following the end of the Finnish prohibition era. 

There were four Jaloviina products at first: one, two, and three star editions, as well as the more premium Jaloviina*** Extra.

Jaloviina, the zero star, was also introduced during WWII. Due to ingredient control during the war, the amount of Cognac was reduced to the bare minimum. Jaloviina has an important part in Finland's history and culture, and it appears in a number of novels, broadcasts, and media.

It is popular among a wide range of people, including rock musicians, hunters, and university students. Mountain cognac, student cognac, and, of course, Jallu are some of its affectionate nicknames.

Why is it a great choice?

The Finnish Jaloviina, also known as Brännvin, is a cut brandy with a strong flavor and only a hint of sweetness. The brandy used in "Jallu" is cognac from France. Since prohibition ended in 1932, Altia, a Finnish government-owned company, has been producing Jaloviina.
