DID YOU KNOW- ICELAND NOW CELEBRATES HALLOWEEN

Ten years ago, if you had walked around some of Iceland's retail stores this time of year, there was no trace of Halloween—or Hrekkjavaka as it is known in Icelandic. You would have had to travel to select stores to assemble a costume and find some Halloweenesque candy.

Today, stores are full of fake spider webs, fake blood, fake fangs, pumpkins, costumes, and individually wrapped candies for dispersing at your door on October 31. Icelanders, especially those under 15 and retail stores, have truly embraced Halloween. If the availability of goods is any cultural barometer, the Halloween scene is thriving and here to stay in the north.

Icelanders have a long-standing storytelling tradition, especially about tales of elves, trolls, and hidden people. With a culture so rich in myths and legends, it's no wonder Halloween resounds deeply.

But it’s not just the young people that are fascinated by this American tradition. The older ones are starting to dress up as well with Halloween parties being all the rage, often with an Icelandic twist, so they are called Hallóvín, word play literally meaning “Hello wine”! Coffee houses have begun offering pumpkin spice lattes, and clothing stores offer all kinds of Halloween goodies.

DID YOU KNOW - A BIT ABOUT ICELANDIC GIN

Alcohol has been produced in Iceland since its settlement, but production has historically been tricky due to harsh weather conditions and restrictions.
Iceland had a decades-long alcohol prohibition that was only fully lifted late into the 20th century.

Iceland has a thriving alcohol industry where innovation meets top-end craftsmanship. Several iconic liquors, including Brennivin, are well-known internationally.

Iceland's freshwater supply originates primarily from glacial meltwater and natural springs. The country is home to numerous glaciers and ice caps, providing a steady and plentiful supply of pure, mineral-rich water.

Icelandic water undergoes natural filtration as it passes through layers of volcanic rock and lava fields. This volcanic filtration process helps remove impurities, resulting in exceptionally clean and clear water — an excellent base for brewing and distilling smooth liquors.

“Himbrimi” means “the common loon” in Icelandic. The country’s native water bird adorns the bottle label. A unique Old Tom Gin handcrafted from organic juniper berries, wild arctic thyme, angelica flowers, and mountain honey.

Named after a famous Icelandic explorer from the 18th century, Olafsson Gin boasts a label that looks like the cover of a classic adventure novel. This gin is distilled using foraged wild Icelandic flowers and herbs, such as Arctic thyme, Icelandic moss, and juniper.

Introducing another bird to the Icelandic gin lineup, Icelandic Eagle Gin makes excellent use of pure Icelandic water and has a soft, sweet finish. It is made from juniper berries, coriander, ginger, angelica, and a bit of orange and lemon.

DID YOU KNOW - ICELAND IS HOME TO THE Reykjanes Unesco Global Geopark

A geopark is a single, unified geographic area that contains geological sites and landscapes of international significance, managed with a holistic approach to protection, education, and sustainable development.

Reykjanes Geopark lies on major plate boundaries along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, part of the 65,000km mid-ocean ridge that encircles the earth like a seam of a baseball. Although 90% of this mountain range lies deep below the surface of the ocean, it rises above sea-level right here on the Reykjanes Peninsula, making this one of the only places on earth where it is visible.

Reykjanes Unesco Global Geopark is the second geopark in Iceland and the 66th member accepted into the European Geoparks Network in September 2015.

Reykjanes Geopark has listed 55 sites as Geosites. Those sites have a significant role in the Geopark and are connected to the story of the Mid Atlantic ridge and the effects of the tectonic plates.

DID YOU KNOW- AN AREA OF REYKJAVIK YOU NEED TO CHECK OUT

The old harbor is the heart of Reykjavík and the catalyst to its formation. The city grew up around the harbor and in the early 20th century it became one of the centers of the Icelandic trawling industry.

The harbor area has been transformed in the past decades. Once the heart of Reykjavík’s fishing industry, the Old Harbor and Grandi area has transformed into a lively waterfront neighborhood where culture, cuisine, marine heritage and modern attractions meet.

Just steps from downtown, the harbor is a great way to spend the morning or afternoon, visiting stores, cafés and museums which provide a glimpse into Icelandic history and culture and an opportunity to sample some of the best Icelandic culinary cultures.
