MACKMYRA BRUK SMALL BATCH #1 FOR SUMMERTON WHISKY CLUB
SWEDISH SINGLE MALT

One of 1482 bottles released.
46.6% ABV / 70cl
Small Batch 01 was distilled at the Mackmyra Bruk Distillery, Sweden’s first whisky distillery, founded by eight friends in 1999 who wondered why Sweden didn’t make its own whisky. This distillery was replaced by their Gravity Distillery in Gävle in 2011, ensuring we are tasting a piece of Swedish whisky history from where there isn’t much liquid left. And with a new Master-Blender and team running Mackmyra the brand will undoubtedly go in a new direction, therefore this is our chance to enjoy where it started before it does. Summerton Club has used mainly ex-bourbon casks, as they feel that best shows off whisky from Mackmyra Bruk, with some new American oak, new Swedish oak and ex-Oloroso to add depth. The whisky they have vatted is of various ages, with the oldest being fourteen years old. This was only available to Summerton Whisky Club members.
