This is a limited edition which was released on the Twasting day (May 2nd) in Sweden. It is made from 7 year old aged base whisky which rested in Mackmyra’s satellite warehouse on the islands of Fjäderholmarna in the inner archipelago of Stockholm.Add to it, are Quarter casks and smaller Blood tubs (30 litre) of ex-bourbon, ex-sherry, new American oak and new Swedish oak.Both new, 1st and 2nd fills together with a few re-charred Scottish casks were used in the mix for the vatting.

Nose: more citrusy, acidity on the nose, slight sherry, yes also grassy

Palate: wow. a much stronger impact on the palate. spicy entry, then fruity, marmalade , buttery again, with Apricots & peaches. sherry notes on the background as well, but not very pronounced.

Finish : Fruits continue, with Apricots and Pears going all the way, some wood and vanilla, and spicy artefacts
