They are made by mixing pork meat with various spices and minced onion and then smoking the sausages over beech wood. The distinctive flavor comes from a combination of marjoram, garlic, and black pepper.

Lithuanian sausages are usually served grilled and can be found in many restaurants and grocery stores throughout Lithuania. They are often served with potatoes, sauerkraut, and mustard.

Several different types of Lithuanian sausages exist, including "Juodasis," which is a black sausage that also contains blood, and "Drožlėta," which is a sausage that is covered in a layer of pig lard.

Lithuanian sausages are seen as a source of national pride and are often featured in cultural celebrations, such as Lithuanian Independence Day.
