Mackmyra Moment Karibien

Only a little sample sized taster, but this was lovely. Sweet rum with a touch of the Sherry notes. Nice bit of spice and heat from the 44%.

Nose: Dried fruit, nutty/almond Palate: Chocolate, vanilla, orchard fruit Finish: Long finish. Dried fruit, rum raisins, ginger, leather. Loads of sweet, toasted wood 75% rum casks from Barbados and Jamaica 25% Oloroso sherry casks Nice, quite an unusual profile from the rum casks, which is quite an interesting change of pace. Not a session dram, but easy drinking.

My second Swedish whisky. Unfortunately, it’s not a whole lot better than my first. Moment Karibien has a somewhat odd flavor, but it’s not nearly as strange and unpleasant as that of Moment Fjällmark. 3 cl sample from The Premium Whisky Advent Calendar (2020 Edition).

Nose: apple, cinnamon and some cherry. Taste: smooth but a bit spicy, more cherry.
