- Description
- Smögen's heavily peated single malt distilled in March 2012 from optic barley and aged four years in a combination of American and Swedish oak before bottling at cask strength in August 2016. The peat is prominent but balanced, characteristic of Swedish production methods, with the mixed oak regimen contributing both vanilla and subtle wood spice. A young, vibrant expression that showcases the distillery's ambition and craft. Best suited to those curious about Nordic whisky-making or collectors seeking limited, cask-strength releases.
