Brooklyn is all about the stoop. It’s the very epicenter of culture, creativity, conversation and camaraderie. This is where it all starts.

Absolut Brooklyn, launched in 2010, was made to pay tribute to what this vibrant, diverse and cosmopolitan borough of New York City is today. Or as spoken word artist Lemon Andersenput it; “Absolut Brooklyn, the greatest country in the world”

Designed in collaboration with famed filmmaker and actor Spike Lee, the bottle is a colorful depiction of the very stoop where he grew up. The mirror printed design on the back of the bottle, when seen through the clear, red apple and ginger flavored Absolut Vodka, creates a visual depth of the roots of Brooklyn; The Stoops of Brooklyn. Other subtle nods include Brooklyn nicknames on the steps of the stoop and a line from a love letter to Brooklyn written by Lemon Andersen.
