Rúgbraud is a traditional Icelandic dark rye bread. Rather than baking it in an oven, this bread is prepared in the ground using natural, volcanic heat. For this playful Brennivín expression, rúgbraud bread is baked near the famous Geysir in Haukadalur then macerated in their flagship aquavit. Two Icelandic traditions combine to create the delicious sensation of biting into freshly baked rye bread!
