This single malt whisky is the Mackmyra base whisky. And, as described in the tasting, it is a very nice whisky to give to starters. And it is true! My wife, who is normally disgusted by the smell of a dram, not only was she willing to smell this whisky, she also poured herself a few drops to taste it. Still no fan, but she tried.
Back to the Mack:
On the nose: A very smooth sweet smell of fruit. almost tropical fruit. think of green apples, pineapple, mango. But all hints of it. No real heavy tone.
Taste: Very light taste. Almost as if the whisky was too shy to give flavor. Same fruity notes as on the nose.
Finish: A short finish. Does not linger long. Very "silky" sweet.

This blended whisky is a very nice whisky to start with.
To be honest, I would serve this on ice on a hot summer day and love it.
On a cold winters night, not so much. I need a warmer buddy for those nights.
Nose: Very hard to find outspoken aroma's. When I found them after warming up to a dram of this whisky, I had hints of fresh apple and cotton candy or caramelized sugar.
Taste: Hints of liquorice, fennelseed and a faint taste of vanilla. On the back of the tongue light smokey.
Finish: Lingering in a weird way. Almost a bit bitter. Like the peel of an orange. It is short though.

After two very light whiskies, I got to try the Svensk Ek. Which means Swedish Oak. And it was oaky!
This was the first whisky of the set that teared in the glass after a swirl. With an immediate release of oak on the nose. So let's start there:
Nose: Oak. Wood. Not just Dry oak, also a hint of fresh, green oak. Vanilla, honey and some spice.
Taste: A strong spice flavor. Leather, a bit of angostura, and spirity.
Finish: A finish of barley, smoke and oak. It linger for a while with a nice tone on my tongue. Loved that finish!

Ok. So the name of this whisky is literally Swedish smoke. So I expect smoke, peat, almost Islay-esque aroma's and flavor. But this, this was something different.
I had thick tears running down the glass when I swirled, almost oily. Already a feint sense of a summer campfire. The whisky is smoked with peat, but they put juniper branches on top of it. Is that what gives it this woodland feeling?
Nose: Peat, but I can only describe it as being "forest" peat. Specifically pine forest. Next to the smoke, you smell fresh pine needles. Almost a sweet aroma.I slight silty flavor going towards salty. The oily structure of the whisky was stronger than the taste. Is is light, sweet and summer.
Finish: For a peated whisky: very short. Sweet tones.

The last whisky on this page. A seasonal edition from Mackmyra.
Limousin. For this whisky Mackmyra used limousin oak barrels from the cognac house Ferrand. This gives an unique fresh, fruity whisky. What a full flavored whisky this is. Everything about this whisky screams warm summer nights after a good full dinner.
Nose: Vanilla, fresh pears, cinnamon, honey, caramel, mint, nectarines.
Taste: Apple, vanilla, spice, cinnamon, walnuts and powdered sugar.
Finish: A sweet, warm fruity finish. Rather short unfortunately. But the nose and the taste make up for this short finish. It is just a whisky that you want to keep drinking.
