Mackmyra Swedish Whisky brings us a Single Malt daily dram with a complex profile and satisfying finish.
We shouldn’t be surprised that a Single Malt Whisky could be made well in Sweden. After all, Sweden sits at about the same latitude as Scotland and is surrounded by the same North Sea. I guess we should really be asking what took them so long to get around to it? Mackmyra has been tinkering with their malt distillery since 1999, but up until a few years ago all their products were used in side beverages, blends, and flavored drinks. They started releasing their Single Malts in 2008. Most of their Spirits are aged in new, Swedish oak placed 50 meters underground in an abandoned mineshaft.
Mackmyra Brukswhisky is an important part of the core range of Spirits. In fact, the word "Brukswhisky" literally means "utility Whisky." OK, that does not translate well out of Swedish. But it’s a way of saying "daily dram." That’s what Mackmyra Brukswhisky is — a consistent, high-quality Single Malt that is approachable. But this is no slacker. The Spirit is a marriage of several cask types from first-fill ex-Bourbon to virgin Swedish oak, ex-Sherry, and refill casks. So you have lots of complexity and a smooth flavor profile.
