Smögen 8 Years 2017/2025- Askeim - Golden Promise Batch#2
Free shipping: Germany from 150 €, EU from 350 €.
Powerful, characterful drams with distinct smoky notes, maritime overtones, and malty sweetness: The Swedish micro-distillery Smögen produces single malts that make the hearts of peat lovers beat faster.
With Askeim 8 yo, Smögen launched a new range at the end of 2024 that highlights the long-lost flavors of old, classic barley varieties – without peat smoke. With this lower-yielding, yet more powerful and distinctive grain, Smögen prioritizes flavor and character over yield and production costs.
Batch 2 is again based on the Golden Promise barley variety. Particularly dominant in the 1970s, it had long since been displaced in the whisky industry by newer, higher-yielding varieties. After triple distillation, the raw spirit spent eight intensive years in 50-liter sherry quarter casks. The result? A delightful old-school malt – smooth, malty, and full of flavor.
