Mackmyra Svensk Rok Swedish Peated Single Malt Whisky 50cl

Mackmyra Svensk Rok Swedish Peated Single Malt Whisky, smoky, hints of juniper, slightly spicy, intriguing and complex whisky. Inspired by the Swedish tradition of preserving food by smoking over fervid juniper twigs, the malt is smoked in the same way to give an unusual twist on the classic peated style of Malt Whisky. The nose is smoky, spicy but with hints of vanilla, caramel and raisin, which continues on the palate with flavours of oak, tobacco, juniper and a slight saltiness. Really interesting Whisky if you like peat and think you’ve tried it all! As with all their whiskies is it produced with minimum environmental impact, no additives and 100% Swedish ingredients.

Mackmyra was the first Whisky producing distillery in Sweden, set up in 1999.

The water they use is some of the purest found anywhere in the world, and the long daylight hours in summer produce barley with a sweetness that has become one of their trademark flavours. The use of Swedish over American oak (a much hardier wood due to the climate) lends a fiery, caramelised spice note to their whiskies. Several years later, they have gone from strength to strength and continue to experiment with new techniques and flavours to produce innovative and delicious whiskies, always with no additives, 100% Swedish ingredients and low impact on the environment
