Worlds First Stainless Steel Bottled Mineral Water Vodka
ICELANDIKA Heritage Vodka sets a new standard in premium spirits.
Reykjavík, Iceland - A groundbreaking new vodka has officially launched in Iceland. ICELANDIKA enters the premium vodka market with Heritage Vodka (Anno 1933), combining Icelandic saga tradition, modern production standards, and the world's first stainless steel bottle for mineral water vodka.
As the global spirits industry undergoes rapid transformation driven by sustainability requirements, premiumization, and consumer demand for authentic origin stories, ICELANDIKA introduces a product built on heritage, material innovation, and certified manufacturing - positioning Iceland at the forefront of next-generation vodka production.
Rooted in family heritage preserved at Herdísarvík and carried forward through generations by Hlín Johnson, ICELANDIKA draws inspiration from Iceland's saga culture and Viking-era values: durability, restraint, and respect for natural resources. Hlín Johnson holds a unique place in Icelandic spirits history as the country's first legally registered private distiller, operating at a time when private production was rare and tightly regulated. What began as household knowledge on a remote coastal farmstead has now evolved into a globally positioned premium spirit carried on by her family.
Produced in small batches under GMP and HACCP systems, ICELANDIKA Heritage Vodka uses naturally alkaline Icelandic mineral water at pH 8.88, Arctic air infusion, and precision distillation. Filtered through volcanic terrain and finalized beside the Atlantic Ocean, the vodka delivers a clean, structured profile designed for both sipping and mixing.
Packaging Innovation: The World's First Stainless Steel Bottled Mineral Water Vodka
ICELANDIKA introduces a packaging breakthrough to the spirits industry: a premium stainless steel bottle created with proprietary molds. The design eliminates glass breakage, reduces shipping emissions, and supports reuse-based distribution models. This reflects a broader shift in premium beverages toward eco-conscious materials and circular systems - stop waste, recycle where necessary, and start reuse by default.
The Nordic minimalist bottle is functional rather than decorative, engineered for real-world environments including airports, travel retail, festivals, five-star hotels, restaurants, and home consumption. It answers growing global demand for durable, lightweight, contamination-safe packaging while maintaining premium visual identity.
Certified Production and Nordic Design for a Global Premium Market
Produced under GMP and HACCP-controlled processes and Icelandic mineral water, ICELANDIKA aligns modern manufacturing discipline with Nordic design philosophy: minimal, honest, and built to last.
As sustainability, traceability and material integrity become central buying criteria in the premium vodka market, ICELANDIKA positions itself at the intersection of heritage and innovation - small-batch production, Icelandic natural resources, certified systems, and packaging engineered for longevity.
From Iceland's southern coast to international distribution channels, ICELANDIKA Heritage Vodka represents a new category of spirits grounded in saga history, shaped by Nordic design, and built for modern global mobility.

Iceland: In from the cold
On Friday the Republic of Iceland handed in an application to join the European Union to the Swedish EU presidency.

Iceland: Real estate market at crossroads
Housing prices will continue to rise over the coming years. The pace of these rises, however, will slow down considerably. High interest rates, tighter access to loans and a cooling labour market are the factors that will reduce demand. Supply, on the other hand, seems to have peaked and is likely to diminish over the next years – which should help stabilise real estate prices. A turn-around is expected in…
