Mackmyra Limousin Whisky

Mackmyra Limousin is a Swedish single malt whisky from Mackmyra distillery, partly matured in French Limousin oak casks that previously held Cognac from Maison Ferrand. The rest of the recipe draws on whisky aged in American oak, ex-bourbon, Oloroso sherry, Swedish oak and raspberry wine casks, creating a layered and fruity whisky inspired by the golden hour in the French countryside.

The nose opens with vanilla and honey, with red berry and prune notes developing over time. On the palate, milk chocolate, almond and crisp pear are lifted by subtle ginger and peppercorn spice. The finish brings white grape, lemon cheesecake and toffee. Bottled at 46.1% ABV, it is an excellent choice for those seeking a complex yet elegant single malt beyond the traditional Scottish styles.
