Vikingfjord is a brand of vodka, distilled from potatoes and bottled by the Norwegian company Arcus. It is distilled through a six-column process, using only glacial water from the Jostedalsbreen glacier in South-Western Norway. The brand was introduced in the 1980s by the Vinmonopolet chain of state-owned liquor-stores. The stores, which have a monopoly on all retail wine and liquor sales in Norway, introduced the product to compete with foreign brands sold in Norway.

  • Vikingfjord is a brand of vodka, distilled from potatoes and bottled by the Norwegian company Arcus. It is distilled through a six-column process, using only glacial water from the Jostedalsbreen glacier in South-Western Norway. The brand was introduced in the 1980s by the Vinmonopolet chain of state-owned liquor-stores. The stores, which have a monopoly on all retail wine and liquor sales in Norway, introduced the product to compete with foreign brands sold in Norway. Sales were sluggish until marketing of the brand was taken over by Arcus in 2004. Pre-mixed flavored cocktails are also sold in Norway under the name Vikingfjord IceBreaker. Vikingfjord is sold in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Germany and the United States. In the U.S. , it has been marketed since 2002 as a super-premium vodka, and was, in 2006, number 9 among imported vodkas. Vikingfjord won the Gold Medal in the 2006 San Francisco Worlds Spirits Competition in the Unflavored Vodka, 40% category.
  • Vikingfjord er en norsk vodka som ble lansert i Norge på 1980-tallet av Vinmonopolet. Polet ønsket å få til et norsk alternativ til alle de utenlandske vodkaene. Salget var ikke noe særlig før Arcus ble etablert i 1996. Da ble produktet fornyet med ny design og ny oppskrift. Flaskedesignet skal gi assosisasjoner til norsk renhet, isbreer og rent vann. Og flasken har slått an, den har vunnet i gull i Mobius Design Award. Den har også mottatt utmerkelsen Merket for God Design som utdeles av Norsk Designråd.
