High Coast Berg

Well, this is when it all began: During my first 50 years, I did not care about whisky at all. I didn‘t like the smell nor the taste of this kind of spirit. But did I actually know what a good whisky tastes like, or even what whisky IS? No. My only association of whisky was as a mixer with cola at the bar when the nights got really long and no other ideas came up. It all changed when my former boss, whom I invited to my party to celebrate my big birthday, gave me the High Coast Berg (batch No 1) as a gift: Aha. Whisky. From Sweden. Ok. So a couple of weeks later I gave it a try and I opened the bottle. Wow! What an experience! The nose with vanilla, nuts and caramel. The palate sweet, but also spicy with cinamon. The finish warm and cosy. I liked it! And so it all began. Now, I have a nice collection of whiskies from Scotland, Japan, India, Taiwan - and Sweden. Thank you High Coast for having led me to this wonderful sensual world of smell, taste and emotions! Therefore it can’t be less than a 5 star rating.

Soft, kind, sweet, full, nice. Very smooth and free of alcoholic taste or burn for its 50% ABV and probably young age. Just calm and nice. Batch 6 2021.

En toppwhiskey, fruktig, komplex.

Full-bodied Swedish whisky of high class. No peat and a bit sweet. Enjoyed it!
