- Description
- Mackmyra's Limousin expression draws maturation influence from ex-Cognac French oak alongside Oloroso, American oak, bourbon, Swedish oak, and raspberry wine casks. The Limousin oak contributes a honeyed, softer profile than standard American oak, while the raspberry wine cask adds subtle stone fruit and wine-like tannins. This multi-cask blend aims for mellow smoothness with layered fruit character, inspired by golden-hour French vineyard warmth. Suited to evening sipping and those who appreciate gentle, fruit-forward Swedish single malts.
