No 9: Smögen “Triple”
Alcohol by volume: 54 %
Cask: First fill Sauternes barriques
No 9: Smögen ”Triple”, an experimental and much coveted bottling of a 5 yo triple distilled heavily peated malt at 54 % abv, matured in two first fill Sauternes barriques casks. Having been distilled twice through the spirit still, Triple was lighter in body and less peaty than usual, but very complex and delightfully fruity and intense in character, thanks in no small part to the sublime addition of nuances from the sweet wine still locked into the staves of the two casks. Released in the winter of 2017.
