: Pilsner malt from Vikingmalt in Halmstad.

 From Bålsjön, filtered through sand and carbon filters

The first ten years has matured  in 17 55-liter sherry casks (Pedro Ximénez) supplied by Miguel Martin and made of American oak which were then saturated with Pedro Ximénez sherry for 12 months.

In addition to this, we chose to add a 200 liter Bourbon barrel, delivered freshly emptied from Kentucky after previously containing Heaven Hill and Jack Daniels, to balance out the taste.

2015-08-24 4.13 year old whisky from five bourbon barrels was filled into 17 55 liter PX barrels.

The Bourbon casks have been stored in a damp warehouse until October 2014 and lost some of their alcohol strength. From October 2014 until emptying, the barrels have been stored in a drier environment in warehouse numbers 3 and 4.

2021-09-01 to 2021-09-02 805 kg of whisky was emptied into the blending tank and the alcohol content was adjusted from 61.25% to a predetermined 52% in when bottling. The first ten years was bottled on 2021-09-02 in an edition of 2088 bottles.

Every season have made it’s mark. Every cold winters day and every never ending summer night with the sun refusing to settle over the river. Shifts in temperature that have forced the whisky in and out of the oak to get it’s character.

This whisky is our first ten years, bottled. Ambition, knowledge, environment and ten years of time.

In 2011 when we filled the barrels for this whisky it felt like an eternity before it would turn 10 years. The history had just begun for the distillery with hope, ambition and a huge belief in the future.
Now, our first ten years has passed by. A significant time for our distillery, but no more than a blink of an eye for our surroundings.
