The Danish Distillery Fary Lochan uses nettle smoke for their whisky, which gives it a unique flavor. I’ll return to that in a moment, but first, a bit about the nettle itself.

Nettles are readily available and provide a distinctive smoke, and they have other properties besides just flavor. They have also been used medicinally and even for textiles.

I believe most people see nettles as an annoying weed today, which doesn’t offer much benefit. But if I should mention some of the good aspects of nettles, it would be that they are rich in vitamins, especially A, C, K, and several B vitamins. They have a relatively high protein content and also contain many important minerals, including iron, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and silicon.
Nettles have anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce inflammation and pain.
They have diuretic properties that can help reduce water retention in the body, and they are known for their blood-cleansing properties, which can help improve liver and kidney function.
Nettles have been used to treat conditions like arthritis, allergies, eczema, and kidney problems over time.

Fary Lochan has taken a family tradition of smoking cheese with nettles and transferred it to the smoking of the malt for their whisky.
Since there are several traditions in Denmark of using nettle smoke for smoking food, among other things, several people have described how the flavor profile of nettle smoke can be.

Flavor Profiles of Fresh Nettle Smoke:
Smoke from fresh nettles is often described as having a range of complex aromas, including:

• Herbal: Reminiscent of fresh parsley, basil, or oregano
• Earthy: Gives a deep, mineral character
• Citrus: Creates a slight acidity and freshness
• Green Pepper: Adds a touch of spice and warmth
• Honey-like: Provides sweetness and smoothness

These aromas can vary depending on various factors, such as the growing location of the nettles, drying method, and the smoking technique used.

The exciting part now is – how does it affect the whisky?
Fary Lochan smokes their malt for the whisky themselves. They have a very primitive setup with an old “fireplace” where they light a fire and pile it high with fresh nettles. The chimney is fitted with a pipe that leads the smoke to a cart with the malt, and here the magic happens under the lid of the cart.

It does not become a heavily smoked whisky, but a fresh whisky where you are treated to a taste that is markedly different from the more traditional peat-smoked whiskies. In this one, it could be said that the level is around 15 ppm, and by comparison, many of the whiskies coming from Islay in Scotland are around 40-55 ppm, so it’s on the mild side.

The nettles provide a unique flavor, and here you get full value since the whisky has been aged in ex-Bourbon casks. The combination is good. The sweet vanilla notes from the cask complement the nettle smoke, also taming some of the harsher smoke notes. Nettle smoke from fresh plants can sting the eyes, but if we translate that to flavor, this is where I think it gets tamed. You get a gentler smoke. The mineral, earthy, pepper, and citrus notes come through nicely. Fary Lochan’s new make has a fantastic freshness and lovely citrus character that pairs well with the smoke from the nettles.

🆅🅴🆁 🅻🅻
It is an exciting and lovely whisky with a different taste. The “Winter” variation has been discontinued from Fary Lochan’s regular lineup, but they still make their nettle-smoked whisky, which comes as Limited Editions, such as Smoke & Sherry.

Mosgaard Whisky “Black Peat” Single Malt is one of the whiskies that stands out and quickly sells out.

This particular bottle you see pictures of has a slightly different label than others of Mosgaard whiskies and is a good sign that they are expanding beyond Danish borders.

It says “Original” instead of “Organic.” The back of the bottle reveals part of the explanation – these are going to Taiwan, so in addition to English, there is also text in Mandarin.

Despite the small change in wording on the front, it’s the same organic Black Peat whisky inside the bottle.

It’s a delightful intense smoky whisky where attention to detail is evident, as always with Mosgaard whisky.

The peat-smoked new make has been maturing in a 50-liter ex-bourbon cask for 4 years and has received a finish in a Virgin Hungarian oak cask, and this is where much of the magic has happened.

The cask of Virgin Hungarian oak has influenced the whisky in this very special way, giving the whisky its very deep and dark color, which can appear almost black. When you hold the whisky up to the sunlight, you have a wonderfully clear and dark brown mahogany color.

The aroma is just as delightful if you like smoky whisky. It’s full-bodied, spiced with allspice, dried wasabi, a hint of dried cloves, tar, and something sweet like chocolate. There’s also a bit of forest floor if you sniff carefully.

It’s a warm mouthful at 55.6% in this version. It dries your mouth but makes your saliva flow.

It moves around the entire mouth, starting out on the sides with the salty and sour taste buds, then moving to the front of the mouth with the sweetness, back to the palate with a bit of bitterness before moving forward again towards the sweetness. It leaves you with a delicious smoky taste of licorice, dark chocolate, and a bit of good vanilla ice cream.

It’s an explosion of flavors rolling around in different nuances, what an experience.

It’s an explosion of flavors rolling around in different nuances, what an experience.

During our trip to Singapore, I had the opportunity to make a quick visit to the distillery, and I can confidently say that it doesn’t belong to the large-scale production category. It’s a small craft distillery squeezed between some tall buildings, with a beautiful gate leading to the distillery and a window that takes up 1/3 of the second floor. Outside on the stairs, you are greeted by the Brass Lion.

Unfortunately, I didn’t have time for a tour, but you can see the copper stills, which are a combination of a pot still and a column system. They also produce a lot of gin, so it makes a lot of sense.

My wife and I sat in the tasting room, or rather, the adjacent room, as a tour had just finished, and they were about to start their tasting.

Naturally, I ordered a whisky – I was about to taste Singapore’s first whisky.

They have two variations: a cask strength at 65% and a variation at 48%. I chose the 48%, partly because I thought that this percentage was selected to represent the distillery’s desired flavor profile while still showcasing their capabilities. The other reason was the price. I thought whisky could be expensive in Denmark, but they have met their match in Singapore.

A very tasty 3 year old whisky with a double maturation.

One elegant thing about this first release is that the first maturation happend in small 50 litre New Danish Oak casks.
This has provided some lovely soft notes of green pepper.
The small casks has done their magic for 13 months and with the oily, fruity new make it has had a fabulous start.
The last 25 months was in a ex-bourbon hogshead from Heaven Hill and it has certainly done it’s wonders on the sweet toffee side.

A wonderful first release from Thornæs Distillery.

It was actually my first visit at the distillery the evening before it was released. I was invited to a small cozy get together with the team at the distillery, some boardmembers and Thomas who is the head and heart og “Friends of Thornaes” on Facebook.

Only 314 bottles at 50.9% abv and 50cl have being released at www.thornaes.com and will be availably at some selected shops cross Denmark.

Congratulations Torben & Co with your first release of a beautiful whisky – Can’t wait to taste the coming whiskies – Cheers

I think the setting was loads of more “Hygge” than the dram surprising in burst of taste. Don’t get me wrong it is a nice dram

I was visiting my good friend and picking up some Viking things for some pictures in the making and all natural – the talk turned into whisky talk
A while ago my friend @h.lindstrom wrote me that he was enjoying a dram of Linkwood and he was saving some for me. Lucky me he hadn’t emptied yet and today was the day for a sip.

My nose was meet with a slight waxy note then came all the “classic” Speyside fruity and flower notes. The taste came rolling soft with vanilla, flowers, some citrus and a mix of new leather and grass.
I think if we have had more time this evening and none of use was to go anywhere this could have been the kind of pleasant easy drinking whisky we could have made a large dip into.

Did you know that 1 in 3 people living in the Orkney Islands can trace their bloodline directly back to the Vikings?

The Orkney Islands were taken over by Vikings back in the 800s and have been in Danish / Norwegian ownership for many years. That’s a long story and maybe we will take that another day
Now it’s about the whisky from Highland Park.
Whisky with Viking Soul and where this one gets it’s name from – The roots in the Viking tribes.

A lovely fresh whisky 10 years old. Matured in sherry casks and ex-bourbon casks.
You will be greeted with fresh fruit in the aroma and Highland Park’s characteristic aroma and taste of the peat from Orkney, honey and heather mixed with sherry notes and soft peat smoke.

It’s not a big heavy whisky, but a delicate every day whisky.

My son had made lunch and subsequently he served a dram I have not tasted before and from a bottler I have not tasted anything from before.

This is a whisky you have to be really patient with. You are greeted with a serious alcohol puff and it burns when you get it in your mouth. Yes, it is 58.6%, but with 10 years behind it, you might expect a somewhat more round experience.

Leave it in the glass, give it some water. Then you get a different experience and it pulls it to another level of taste.

Benrinnes is a Speyside distillery and you get the classic flower notes, but it is a warm flower meadow

Rauff & Fagerberg is a very young Danish company, founded in Odense, in April 2020, by Jørn Rauff and his wife Karina Fagerberg.
I have not been able to find a website for them, but I can see on instagram that there are several bottles to choose from.

Definitely a whisky you need to give time and preferably also some water to open it up. It’s not a whisky I would give someone new to the whisky game. Someone who has tried the whiskies that burn in the mouth and can hold it some time in the mouth will definitely be able to have a pleasure with this whisky and it will be a dram that can last for a while.

It’s exciting to see what Cooper King develops into when we are talking whisky. Their New Make tasted really good and it is now up to the casks whether they are chosen carefully and fits the spirits.

The choice of casks for this Maturing Malt, which I have had the pleasure of tasting, comes from MB Roland distillery in Kentucky,USA. The casks that have previously been used for Bourbon corn whiskey (1st fill bourbon, 2nd fill corn whiskey) have been used. It is slightly smaller barrels of 100 liters, of American oak and with a char Nr. 4.

Maturation on smaller barrels means that it goes faster because there is more contact between the spirit and the wood. I will write more about that at a later date.
Char No.4 means that the barrel has been burned inside. It has been burned for 55 seconds which gives a somewhat raw surface, therefore it is also called “Alligator Char”. It gives a good sweetness to the spirit. More on that later.

Back to the 15 month old “Maturing Malt”.
A lot has happened in 15 months and it gives a completely different taste experience compared to the New Make. A little alcohol has disappeared, from 60% to now 59.7% not much, but still enough to give you a different mild experience, yes of course you get the power and the taste that it is young spirits we are dealing with.

You can see the colour change from the all nutral coloured New Make on the right to the Champagne yellow Maturing Malt on the left side.

The influence of the casks has begun to take shape and we get some sweet cream caramel and a feeling of freshly cut wood. Imagine you have just cut firewood, you are standing with a piece of oak or beech wood and sniff it. It’s a lovely scent. There are also notes of pepper, lime and something reminiscent of spruce needles or resin, which I do not think I experience so often, but it leads the taste a bit to barrel-aged gin.
The tast is pleasant and surprisingly soft when we take age into account. It increases in intensity and gets nice and warm with floral notes and ginger jam in a wonderful combination of good notes of barley.

I think the cask selection has been just fine and it will be exciting to taste the next spirits and whisky comeing from Cooper King.
They have revealed that they have some exciting cask lying. Some which have contained smoked bourbon, softer Corn whiskey and Cognac casks. It will also be exciting to taste what comes from the casks that come from Tasmania – and as they write; “We Haven’t heard of others in England and Scotland who have matured on casks from that part of the world yet”. I have tasted whisky from Tasmania and if you like good whisky, that is a corner of the world at look at

𝙄 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙜𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙝𝙞𝙨𝙠𝙮: (4.5/6)
Definitely a distillery to keep an eye on. A well-made new make and with the small barrels that provide good maturation conditions, I am pretty sure it will be interesting whisky in the future.

Caol Ila with a different touch of what I have tasted – and I love it.
Right after I opened this bottle of Caol Ila from Golden Drops who has it as an Independent bottler, I tasted some bitterness and my expectations lowered, actually I was a little disappointed -BUT! after some patience I was rewarded.

So my first advise is; Buy the bottle!
Next advice is; Open it, pour a dram and have patience with the first sip a least 20 min.

I do not recall ever having referred to a scent of tomato sauce in a whisky but that was one of these experiences I got. A lovely thick well spiced tomato sauce ready to be poured over a bowl of steaming hot spaghetti. Another scent that surprised me was what I will recall as Marmite – Yes the food spread made from yeast extract. Oh well it is a by-product of beer brewing and high i vitamins
It is this meatiness that for me makes a difference and that it brings other aromas into the picture than other more streamlined whiskies.

It started in a ex-bourbon cask and finished in a first-fill oloroso sherry cask for 2 years. The sherry is not over powering and mingles perfect with the peat smoked barley from Caol Ila and the sweetness from the American oak wood.

So if you like Caol Ila and want a unik Caol Ila taste you need to visit Golden Drops to get your bottle. Only 287 bottle were sendt to the marked – and Golden Drops have them all.

𝙄 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙜𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙝𝙞𝙨𝙠𝙮: (5/6)
I really enjoy Caol Ila and this one has given me a new angle on what Caol Ila can do. Nice sweetness from the years in the ex-bourbon cask and a spicy touch, dryness and fruitiness from the sherry cask. A really fine combination.

Talisker whisky is something I really appreciate and it is no exception with Talisker 18 years old.

Something special happens with the combination of smoke, sea, sherry casks and time. The heavy smoke in the younger Talisker is lovely and does the job, but this 18 year old has hit something, in my taste absolutely amazing. The softness in this whisky can make most non-smoke fanatics to like smoked whisky. In my optics, it is a shame to give new whisky drinkers the heavily smoked whisky. You should rather serve a good, well-stored pleasant smoked whisky so they can get the experience that it can taste good and not just be a smoke bomb right in the nose and throat.

Talisker 18 years old is a smoked whisky I would serve anyone that want a good experience with smoked whisky, and yes, there are a whole lot of less smoked whiskies that you can start with but saying this 18 year old can turn many.

Talisker 18 years old can sometimes be hard to get hold of and can be a little pricey, but still it does not run off in the same way as other 18 year old ones can do. I think you get really good whisky at a reasonable price.
