Smögen 3 Year Old 2011 Sherry Project 1:2 50cl Whisky

The second release from Smögen's Sherry Project, the 1:2, was distilled in July 2011 using peated optic barley and firstly matured in European oak quarter casks before enjoying a finishing period of eight months in a Sherry butt. It was bottled in January 2015 (we're informed that the "2014" on the lower part of the label is a mistake), and 959 bottles were produced.

The Sherry Project from Smögen is an exciting venture from the relatively new Swedish distillery. Each release of single malt whisky (there will be four altogether) will have been given a longer finishing period in Sherry butts than the previous.
