Tasting Notes
High Coast's Silent Mills Collection – #3 Svanö is a remarkable whisky that celebrates the region's history while showcasing exceptional craftsmanship. Initially matured in bourbon barrels, a portion is then aged in virgin Swedish oak casks, imparting a unique character. Despite its robust phenol content of 51 PPM, the smoky notes are beautifully balanced with rich, creamy vanilla, buttery apple cake, and zesty lemon peel. On the palate, the sweet smoke unfolds, accompanied by custard-like vanilla, poached pears, and gentle spice. The finish lingers with peaty notes, complemented by stewed fruits and a refreshing hint of lemon peel. This whisky is a testament to the skill and expertise of High Coast's distillers, who have masterfully crafted a complex and harmonious dram that pays homage to the region's sawmill heritage while captivating the senses with its depth of flavor and remarkable balance.
