Minttu liqueur is a crystal clear peppermint liqueur produced in Turku by Vin & Sprit. The product is marketed for the Finnish market and as such bears a noticeably Finnish name, but it is also popular in Norway, Sweden and other Nordic countries. It has a strong, crisp taste and scent of peppermint. Taste is quite similar to Crème de menthe, but appearance is more like vodka. Minttu is 50% by volume (100 proof).
