Mackmyra Special 06 Summer Meadow 2011 Single Malt Swedish Whisky (700ml)

A Swedish malt to herald the Summer: 06 is a fresh styled whisky with a floral and fruity character. Matured in bourbon and sherry casks. One only to sell. 46.8% Alc./Vol.

Self-described as “Adventurers in Whisky”, the diversity of Mackmyra's range and barrel regimes bear testimony to their claim. While they offer malts matured in traditional x Bourbon and Sherry casks, finishes range from Sauternes barrels through to casks which have previously held traditional fruit and berry wines, as well as indigenous Swedish oak (the latter reportedly contributes prominent spice). Casks of 30 and 100 litres are typical. The smaller vessels create an intense maturation with high oak-to-liquid ratios. All the whiskies are aged at a constant temperature, 50 meters deep underground in the Bodas mine on the island of Fjäderholmarna.
