Capturing the unique cultures, ethnicities and culinary delights of San Francisco, ABSOLUT SF features an innovative blend of grape, dragon fruit and papaya that entices spirits drinkers with a bold flavor when mixing a perfect cocktail. Just as the flavors blend beautifully to create a unique vodka expression, ABSOLUT SF will blend the voices of San Franciscans as they share their stories of life in the City by the Bay on the campaign’s integrated Facebook
What about TULOSBA AKDOV NOITIDE NOISULLI (Absolut Vodka Illusion Edition) or ABSOLUT ORIENT APPLE? Looks like some new Absolut bottles for your collection :) First one comes with classic Absolut Vodka design but all text and logo is mirrored. See detailed image here. Second one will be for sure new worldwide flavor (if it will be produced). Design of Absolut Illusion Edition and logo of Absolut Orient Apple were already registered by Absolut Vodka. (U.S. federal trademark registration applied on December for Illusion Edition and in October for Orient Apple).
I’m back from my holiday and new flavored Absolut Vodka arrived. Absolut Wild Tea. Rich, fresh aroma with hints of black tea, elderflower, red apples and citrus. The taste is rich and fruity with tones of black tea, natural sweetness and smoothness.
So another Absolut City Limited Edition flavor (Absolut Boston) has been modified for public release. (First one could be Absolut Mango after success of Absolut New Orleans followed by Absolut Berri Acai originaly known as Absolut Los Angeles.)

And still more to come. Absolut San Francisco vodka will debut later this year – and although the details of the exciting new flavor blend is yet to be released, the profile will be more of a ‘wine country’ grape flavor.
Last night, on 18 October, it was “sneak” premièred at a spectacular release party at Villa L’Abri in Cannes—Absolut Watkins, the smashing new limited edition flavour from Absolut, created exclusively for global travellers, reflecting all of the excitement, glamour and star quality of the globetrotting fashion world. Absolut Watkins will be launched throughout the global duty free/travel retail market in January 2011.
The new edition has a truly innovative new flavour; rich, smooth and sensual in taste and aroma with the distinct, mysteriously luxurious qualities of freshly ground coffee with notes of almond, caramel and warm chilli.
The extravagant and glamorous decor of the unique limited edition Absolut Watkins bottle was created by celebrated Swedish fashion illustrator and artist, Liselotte Watkins, famous for her designs for fashion brands such as Miu Miu, Anna Sui and Barney’s as well as for magazines such as Vogue and The New Yorker.
“With my bottle decor and the campaign imagery, I wanted to convey something of my own vision regarding the archetype of cosmopolitan glamour,” said Stockholm and Milan based Watkins. “The flavour is a traveller’s exclusive and travelling is one of my great passions. Everything I do is all about people and places, travelling and new experiences.”
The “sneak première” of Absolut Watkins was staged during the TFWA World Exhibition at an extravagant party for trade press and VIPs, complete with set designs and extras employed to add an out-of-the-ordinary sense of the timeless glamour of classic luxury travel, naturally all in the presence of the artist.

Seems to me that this site transformed to the “limited editions” blog instead of magazine ads. Yes. It’s true. No one cares about the magazine ads Absolut Vodka produces last few years and almost all collectors focused on limited edition bottles and covers. For all the fans of limited edition bottles there is going to be new one this August in China - ABSOLUT 72变. 350 000 bottles going to be made! More about this bottle can be found on the collectors forum.
It’s been quite a long time since my last post. Busy months didn’t allow me to think about Absolut world too much. So what’s new?
New limited edition bottles appeared together with new city flavor. Let’s start with ABSOLUT BROOKLYN. It’s fourth city limited edition after New Orleans, Los Angeles and Boston. The flavor is red apple & ginger. More about the bottle can be found on AbsolutRegis.com forum.
Other two limited edition bottles were produced in Italy where they started to sell them in March. The are called ABSOLUT WALLPAPER. One bottle designed by Gio Pagani and second one by Alessandro Guerriero. There should be only about 90 000 bottles made!
I went on my winter holiday and didn’t even notice that new flavor in Absolut Vodka family just arrived! A taste of açaí, blueberry and pomegranate. Well. Time to try something new :) More information here on official website.
BTW: Is it really a new flavor or it’s just a new name for Absolut Los Angeles? This limited edition flavor contained Acai, blueberry, pomegranate and acerola.
