From beer and cider to vodka and gin, Bornholm is booming with micro-distilleries making high-quality, small-batch spirits. Nord Snaps by Rie Uldahl in eastern Svaneke is one of them, and owner Rie puts a more sophisticated spin on the traditionally low-brow Danish snaps by using foraged ingredients such as blackberry and beech leaves. A few doors down is wine shop and bar-restaurant Vinøst, now in its third year, which has the most extensive collection of natural wines on the island. The store is packed with bottles by estates from all over Europe, including owner Martin Barslund’s own natural red, made from grapes cultivated in the neighbouring fields. nordsnaps.com, vinoest.dk
