I'm kind of skeptical to the fact that akvavit would be spiced with cumin. This seems to be some translation error, since caraway is called kummin in for example Swedish. Caraway is very nice to spice vodka with, but I find it hard to believe that cumin would be nice...

Caraway is correct (see no:karve Fornadan (t) 16:33, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
I agree. Cumin is not a common ingredient in akvavit. I have recently added Anise (or aniseed) to the list, and suggest that we remove cumin unless someone protests. The list of herbs would still not entirely reflect common practice, and should be further revised. I will look into that shortly. --DagI 13:45, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
