Mackmyra SVENSK EK - PRE 2023 EDITION 46,1% Vol. 0,7l in Giftbox

Opis

The flagship Swedish whisky created using 100% Swedish ingredients. Casks coopered from Swedish oak create a more firm and spicy flavour. Svensk Ek is matured in Swedish oak casks giving the whisky a spicy character giving notes of sandalwood, dried ginger, black pepper, roasted oak barrel and herbs to our whisky.
We are constantly developing our ancient craft to make it even better. One example of our many innovations is to age a great deal of our whisky in smaller barrels thereby extracting more flavour.
It’s quite a character
Never before had one matured whisky in virgin Swedish Oak casks. The result was a whisky full of flavour, yet subtle.
The cell structure and shape of lactones in Swedish oak differs compared to American oak and is the reason behind its unique character.
TASTING NOTES:
