After loving the Vintersol I'm looking at getting a different bottle tomorrow..
My options are..
Intelligens
Svensk Rok
Svensk Ek
Brukswhisky
Anyone have any notes on these to make the choice easier?
He'll usually give me a good taste of any I'm thinking about but I'll be driving.
Thanks folks |

I found the Mackmyra Svensk Ek youngish, sweet toffee and vanilla notes and with a bit of spice, I couldn't fault it, no surprises just as you would expect for a young oak matured whisky, I would rate it 83/100
I have had a quick taste of the Mackmyra Svensk Rok and wasn't very impressed I detected an odd chemical note running along side the smoke which put me off, perhaps it would be different if I tried it again but I would say for your money if you want a smoky whisky look at Scotch. |

Brilliant..thanks for that.
I quite fancy the Intelligens, just the fact it was "made"by A.I.
I don't know if it'll be worth the extra 20 quid though.
As for my scotch fix, I'll also be getting a lovely Kilkerran. |

| I have had all except Intelligens but I thought that the other 3 were all quality whiskies but if I had to choose one it would be Brukswhisky |

Have had a few bottles of mackmyra whisky.
Brukswhisky,
First edition,
Bloomstertid,
Vinterglod,
Skordetid ,
Midnattssol,
Have got a bottle of Vintersol for my Birthday in February.
Vinterglod was my favourite but I have never had a bad one yet. They don't seem to have the exposure compared to Japanese whisky which is good for me as it keeps the price down

Will, thank you folks, I went for the Svensk Enough. Not tried it yet, I will do tonight though.
I also got a bottle of Kilkerran 12. I love anything from this distillery and not had a bottle of 12 for a while. |
