  • DESCRIPTION
  • TASTING NOTES
  • CASKS

This is the first time we present a seasonal whisky with Amarone cask finishing. Using the complex and unique flavours of this wine gives this latest edition a soft and spicy character that is suited to autumn and winter.

Skördetid is an elegant Swedish single malt whisky partially matured in Italian Amarone casks, Masi Costasera Amarone, but which has kept the original character of Mackmyra’s whisky casks. The whisky was initially matured in the Bodås mine in Sweden in our Mackmyra casks, and to finish the whisky, a high proportion spent a final six months in the Masi 600 litres Oak cask.

The aroma is spicy, fruity and herbal with warm vinous grape notes and a slightly mineral tone. On the palate, the flavours are fruity and spicy with raisins and dried pears, as well as ginger and vanilla. The mouthfeel is creamy and medium-bodied. The long finish is fruity and spicy with notes of oak and warm raisins.

Nose: Spicy, fruity and herbal with warm vinous notes of grapes and a hint of minerals. Round oaknotes of vanilla and aromas of anise, ginger raisins, pear fudge and vanilla.

Taste: Fruity and spicy with dried fruits, pear and raisin, ginger and vanilla. The texture is creamy and medium thick.

Summary: Fruity, spicy and oaky with warm notes of raisin
