Facts

Hunting season inspired this bottling, and the casks tell its story. Mackmyra seasoned Swedish oak with Jaktvin, a local wine pressed from wild lingonberries and blueberries. That wine soaks into the wood, then hands its character to the spirit resting inside. The result feels like a Swedish forest in a glass. Ripe mango leads, followed by a perfumed lift and a warm thread of tea-like spice. It is malty at the core, with floral notes drifting over the top. Bottled at 48.1%, it stays bright and lively. This is a limited release, so each pour feels like a small occasion.

About the distillery

Distillery

Mackmyra

Mackmyra is a Swedish whisky distillery located in Gävle, Sweden. It was founded in 1999 by a group of friends who shared a passion for whisky and a desire to create a unique Scandinavian whisky. Mackmyra produces a range of single malt whiskies that are made using locally sourced Swedish barley and other Scandinavian ingredients, such as lingonberries and juniper. Their core range includes expressions like the Mackmyra Svensk Ek, which is aged in Swedish oak casks, and the Mackmyra Brukswhisky, which is matured in a combination of bourbon, sherry and Swedish oak casks. One interesting fact about Mackmyra is that they use a gravity-fed distillery, which means that the entire distilling process is done using gravity instead of pumps. This unique method of distillation is said to help preserve the natural flavours of the whisky and create a smoother, more complex spirit.

About the Mackmyra Moment Jakt

Mackmyra Moment Jakt is a Swedish single malt whisky from the Mackmyra distillery in Sweden. It belongs to the distillery's prized Moment series, released in tightly limited numbers. Each batch runs to only a few hundred bottles, which makes it a real collector's find. The name means hunt, and the casks carry that theme. Mackmyra seasoned Swedish oak with Jaktvin, a wine made from wild lingonberries and blueberries. The whisky also rested in ex-bourbon casks that once held Pedro Ximenez sherry. Together these woods shape its deep, fruity character. On the nose, expect a perfumed and floral lift, with bright mango leading the way. The palate is malty and round, layered with fresh fruit and warm spice. A gentle tea-like note runs through the finish, alongside soft oak and berries. Mackmyra built its reputation on a fresh, modern take on single malt whisky. The distillery sits north of Stockholm and leans hard into Swedish ingredients. Swedish oak and local berry wines give its bottlings a clear sense of place. Serve Mackmyra Moment Jakt neat to let its spicy, fruity layers open slowly. At 48.1% it has plenty of body without feeling heavy. The mango and floral notes keep every sip bright and lively. A gentle tea-like spice runs through the long finish. This is a clever, characterful take on Nordic single malt. The Moment series is prized by collectors for its rare, small batches. Each bottle of Mackmyra Moment Jakt feels like a genuine find. Curious drinkers and Mackmyra fans alike will find it rewarding.
