High Coast
Tasting Notes
High Coast Älv, dubbed Delicate Vanilla, is a captivating Swedish single malt that invites you on a delightful journey of flavors. Aged for six years in first-fill bourbon casks, this whisky enchants with its luscious vanilla aroma, reminiscent of creamy ice cream swirled with bramble berries, salted peanuts, and a hint of crème brûlée. Underneath, delicate nuances of freshly grated nutmeg, dried grass, apricot yogurt, and marzipan tantalize the senses. On the palate, it unveils a full-bodied and fruity character, bursting with tropical fruit, vanilla, and toffee notes, complemented by a sprinkling of black pepper and a touch of toasted oak warmth. The finish lingers with a delightful cereal and dark fruit sweetness, leaving a lasting impression. This limited release of 8,259 bottles from the High Coast distillery, situated along the Ångermanälven River, is a true celebration of Swedish craftsmanship and a must-try for connoisseurs seeking a unique and delectable dram.
