SMÖGEN

Our focus is production and maturation of the highest quality and clearly distinctive single malt whisky there is, with a flavour profile based on a pronouncedly malty core with evident peat notes and cask character as complimentary notes. Production is entirely manual and in very small batches, under constant personal monitoring of the process. We will and do use local raw materials, but the primary consideration is and will remain quality and strength of character.

Smögen is a micro-sized malt whisky distillery and our focus is on high quality and big character in small batches, with completely manual production and very hands-on monitoring. Although we will gladly use entirely local raw materials, the endeavor to do so will be subordinate to the quality and character aspects. We are since 2020 using mainly Swedish heavily peated and floor malted barley for our spirit and are very happy about both character and quality.
Smögen Whisky AB, the owning company, was founded in the summer of 2009, on the Bohuslän west coast of Sweden, to offer malt whisky of big character and with clear coastal influences. Production, the entire warehousing and bottling are all located on the farmstead of Ståleröd, just southeast of Hunnebostrand, to the North of Smögen island.

Our bottlings are almost exclusively either Single Cask or very limited volume batched bottlings, neither of which will be exactly replicated, as we strive to attain maximum quality and character rather than consistency of flavour. You shall always know that you will get a big and hearty experience when getting a Smögen, even though it will not be exactly the same flavour profile as the last one.

While remaining traditional in the production process and cask selection, we like to explore new routes of flavour and trust that you as a whisky enthusiast and curious-minded soul can agree!
