Silent Mills 03 – Svanö
Silent Mills 03 – Svanö is number three in a category of whiskies that deepens and develops the theme of the pedigree and authenticity of our Origins series. Our brand draws its power and originality from the High Coast, and its nature, history and stories. In Silent Mills, our historical origins in the Norrland forest industry are in focus and the whisky is linked to our Origins edition, Timmer.
Like Timmer, all Silent Mills editions are peated and mainly matured in 200 liter Bourbon barrels. The main difference between the Timmer and Silent Mills series is that we add other casks to the Silent Mills whiskies to deepen the taste and create whiskies with more complexity and an exciting tonality.
In Silent Mills 03 – Svanö, it is the Swedish oak that expands the taste perspective. This peated whisky has a subtle approach to aroma. The peat is barely perceptible at first sniff. During the tasting, the lovely peat smoke emerges in full bloom and then it suddenly becomes apparent even to the nose. This is a really cool and multi-layered whisky that demands its time in the glass. Silent Mills 03 - Svanö is, like all bottlings from High Coast, neither colored nor cold-filtered.
Released April 13th 2021 on the swedish market at Systembolaget.
