Mackmyra Bjorksav

Very sweet and with plenty of range and intensity of flavours. Perhaps a little too sweet for my palate? 82/100

Mackmyra Svensk Ek

Mackmyra’s 100 Swedish expression including full maturation in Swedish oak. Full of orange zest and woody spices I found this one pleasing but a little challenging in places, perhaps a dash of water may help here? 82/100

Mackmyra Brukswhisky 2008 vintage

More neutral and better balanced with a wealth of woody/sappy notes like walking through a pine forest but still with hints of the classic Mackmyra sweetened banana distillate. 84/100

Mackmyra Mack

Banana splits club (Hold the bus!) super estery and sweet, plenty of fruit but some woody spices to keep it in check towards the end. Fairly simple and straightforward and the sweetness is just about tempered enough to keep it pleasing. 80/100
