This bottling comes from a lesser known Swedish distillery, Smogen, who produce heavily peated single malt whisky on the Swedish coast! This batch done by Adelphi was aged 10 years in Ex-Bourbon, cask number #58, released for Adelphi’s 30th Anniversary! 58.1% Abv.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Burnt out campfire in the morning. Illegal fireworks and a fun long weekend (reminds me of cadets…)
Palate: Salt & pepper sea-spray, worn in leather gloves, citrus peel & fragrant peat
Adelphi is one of the world’s top independent bottlers of whisky. They acquire casks already matured to bottle, as opposed to maturing them themselves, and the Adelphi brand has been synonymous with top quality whisky for in the post-2000 era. The company also owns the Ardnamurchan distillery on Scotland’s east coast, which distilled its first spirit in 2014 and released its first single malt in 2020.
