About this SPIRIT
High Coast Distillery
High Coast, formerly known as Box Distillery, was founded in 2010, making it one of Sweden’s oldest distilleries and among the world’s most northerly. The distillery produces both heavily peated and unpeated whisky under the watchful eye of production managers Roger Melander and Lars Karlsson, both passionate lovers of whisky themselves. High Coast draw inspiration from both the rugged whiskies of Scotland and the precise beauty of the Japanese style to create something that may well surpass both.

Description
Wonderfully rich and forward nose. Dried orange, caramel and crystalised ginger sit in front of an enticingly smoky core. There is a very charming and unmistakable cherry character peering through also. In the mouth, it is generous; there is a sweet touch to the fruit that balances the warming peat and salted caramel.
The finish develops remarkably until you have a baked fruit and pastry sensation. The 63% is warming but not overwhelming, the sweetness gives an incredible balance to it, and it goes down remarkably well. Very tasty and certainly a contender for a drop or two of water. This evocative winter warmer should make its way to your sideboard.
