  • The distillery
    Inderøy

    Aquavit from Inderøy Distillery

    116 years after the last bottle was filled at Sundes distillery in 1900, aquavit farmer Svein Berfjord brought the tradition back to Inderøy and today runs Inderøy distillery from Berg Farm in Inderøy. Cask-aged aquavit from Inderøy The monopoly scheme for the production of spirits was abolished in 2005, which opened opportunities for other than just Arcus to make and sell aquavit. Arcus is the company under the Vinmonopolet that had a monopoly on producing alcoholic beverages in Norway. In recent years, the focus on short-travelled, local and traditional food and drink has led to a new flourishing of small-scale aquavit production. Kjersti and Svein Berfjord at Berg Farm in Inderøy focus on farm tourism and have their own country farm store, farm butchery and restaurant. In 2015, they established Inderøy Distilleryt and the farm’s Inderøy caraway is now processed into cask-aged aquavit. They delivered the first bottles to the local Vinmonopol in 2016 – 116 years after the last local aquavit was distilled at Sundnes Brenneri. Inderøy caraway Caraway grown on Berg farm is one of the most important ingredients in the Inderøy aquavit. Svein observed that fruit farmers in the south and west had started making apple spirits and then got the idea to process the caraway he grows on the farm. There are eight / nine growers on Inderøy who produce almost all the caraway in Norway. Most Norwegian aquavit is probably produced with Inderøy caraway. They have been selling the caraway for many years to another large aquavit producer, Arcus. Thus, the idea of building a separate distillery was born. Svein jokingly says that from the time he started distilling in March 2015, he did not drive a car until April 2016. In addition to home-grown caraway, Berfjord has also used local junipers. Star anise, coriander, fennel and other widely used aquavit spices are of course also included. Aged in old sherry casks Aquavit must be matured in casks – a minimum of 12 months in 1000 liter casks and a minimum of 6 months in 500 liter casks. Svein has a 500 liter cask, but he wanted to do more than the minimum requirement. Therefore, the first aquavit Svein produced – Akevitt no 1 – spent 9 months in old sherry casks (Oloroso and PX) which he bought from the Spanish sherry house Fernando de Castilla. After aging in casks, the aquavit is pumped up into a milk tank, then cold-stabilized and filtered before being hoisted into another tank and ready for bottling. The Golden Aquavit (Den Gyldne Akevitt) – the first aquavit where ALL the raw materials are Norwegian Svein started by using only classic spices in the aquavits. But besides Inderøy caraway produced on the farm, the other spices were not particularly short-travelled or local. Anise seeds from Syria, star anise from China, fennel from Germany, coriander from Turkey and citrus from the Mediterranean countries. Thus, the idea of replacing these spices with something that grows locally was born. Since then, he has taken many walks in Inderøy and picked from the rich local flora. He has then distilled everything from dandelion to spruce shoots to give the aquavits a very special and local addition. The Golden Aquavit is a result of this process. It is the first aquavit where all the raw materials are Norwegian. All seeds and herbs have been harvested along the Golden Road. In the aquavit you will find, among other things, Inderøy caraway, watercress, mead, dandelion and spruce shoots. The aquavit is also sweetened with Inderøy honey. After that, it has been stored for 12 months in used Oloroso casks. Svein now produces several types of aquavit See an overview of the different aquavits produced by Svein The aquavits are on the Vinmonopolet’s additional selection, which means that all of Vinmonopolet’s stores across the country can order in the aquavit. Join the aquavit farmer in the cask house Come for a unique experience with storytelling and aquavit tasting in the distillery where we produce the aquavit. Surrounded by rustic barrels filled with precious drops with a view into the production facility you can enjoy and assimilate knowledge in perfect harmony. Svein welcome groups to aquavit experiences all year by prior appointment. Why not combine with a very local meal at Slakteriloftet at Berg Farm. Contact us for a no obligation offer.

  • Hustad Church - medieval church along the Golden Road in Inderøy
    Inderøy

    Hustad church - a medieval church in Inderøy

    - Medieval chruch along the Golden Road in Inderøy Hustad Church is a long church in Inderøy Municipality in Nord-Trøndelag dating from 1150. The church, which is built of stone and seats 150, was built around the middle of the 12th century. It is owned by the Society for the Protection of Norwegian Ancient Monuments and is not a parish church. Hustad Church is the smallest of the protected Trøndelag churches owned by the society, and has not been altered or restored since the society took over ownership in 1887. It is therefore uncommonly well preserved both inside and out, with elements from the Middle Ages, 17th, 18th and early 19th centuries. The church is surrounded by “Kjerkeplank”, a cog-joined fence that probably dates from the 17th century. This type of fence is rare in Norway, and is the only preserved fence of its type in Trøndelag. Hustad Church was built in the same period as several other stone churches in Innherred, built in the same style and with the same material (Mære Church, Sakshaug Church, Stiklestad in Verdal, and Alstadhaug Church in Skogn). The archbishops of Nidaros (Trondheim) were behind this major investment to replace old wooden churches in the district with stone churches at that time. Hustad church is open for walk-in visitors in the summer season for besøkende i sommersesongen.

History Within the Walls The oldest part of the hotel, Lillegården, originally belonged to the historic Sundnes estate and boasts a history spanning more than 150 years. Over the years, distinguished visitors such as Asbjørnsen and Moe, Ole Bull, and Aasmund Olavsson Vinje have all spent time here. Today, the building’s historic charm remains an important part of the guest experience. Here, tradition meets modern comfort, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that many visitors find truly special. A Place for Both Activity and Relaxation The hotel is centred around a beautiful and inviting garden, creating a calm and relaxing atmosphere throughout the year. This makes Jegtvolden a popular venue for weddings, private celebrations, conferences, and other special events. Just beyond the hotel grounds, a range of outdoor experiences awaits. Take a stroll along the shoreline, search for treasures on the beach, try your luck fishing from the pier, watch the horses, or simply relax with good food and drink in peaceful surroundings. Whether you are visiting Jegtvolden Fjord Hotel for business, a holiday, a wedding, or a romantic getaway, you will find inspiration, relaxation, and authentic fjord-side charm – with nature right on your doorstep.
