Absolut Glimmer
Because Absolut rhymes with purity and transparency, the famous Swedish vodka revisits the iconic shape of its bottle for Christmas of 2010: the decanter bottle becomes a coat of glass, finely carved crystal, which highlights refinement of its development. This glittering envelope and expresses a strong character top-end of Absolut. This limited edition will go on sale in November 2010 in nightclubs and then in all the outlets of supermarkets in Europe.

ABSOLUT Tack
ABSOLUT Tack Vodka is a rare bottle which was given to the employee from Sweden Absolut, which was owned by the Swedish Government at the time. Tack in Swedish means Thank you. This was given to the employee after they sold the brand to Pernod Ricard. Pesonally this is a valuable bottle in 1 of the absolut collection.
The poem on the bottle reads:-
All ends are new beginings
all beginings have new ends.
But once closed companions
are always considered friends
Thanks for all that has been
good luck in what may be.
Some splitting paths
reunite in the end
and maybe so will we.
