- Welcome back Drinkers!
This week we are traveling a little north and trying some Swedish Whiskey! Ya you heard that right! This week we are reviewing the Swedish distillery High Coast and their single malt whiskey called "Hav" which means sea.
We are always a fan of single malts and we really hope this unique pour lives up to the hype. Time tom put our snow suits on boys, because it is time for some Alcohol Content!

Just had to mention that Absolut vodka is Swedish and I guess that's the most famous product.
Yeah was gonna mention this. Absolut is definitely the most famous alcohol from Sweden.
Sweden is actualy the leading exporters of vodka worldwide
High Coast Berg is a must try! High Coast Älv is great too. And if you can find a bottle of High Coast Lägereld.... Its the holy grail!
noted, we will keep an eye out! Thanks for the recommendations.
Good call!
Berg = mountain
Älv = river
Lägereld = campfire
If you want a whisky from Sweden with a unique bottle, then you really should try and get a hold of a bottle from Spirit of Hven. I recommend Tycho's Star.
The destillery is located on the island of Ven in the Oresund Strait between Sweden and Denmark and beside from whisky they also produce their own vodka and gin, both flavored and unflavored, as well as Aquavit.
All the malt that they use for their whisky are locally grown on the island.
Ven is also the island where the renaissance astronomer Tycho Brahe lived and worked at the palace-observatory Uraniborg and his underground observatory Stjerneborg .
Awesome! thanks for the recommendation. We will be on the look out for sure. Cheers!
Another Swedish brand is Mackmyra
They filed for bancrupcy just a few days ago. Not sure if that will make the prices rise or fall, tbh.
I really enjoyed this bottle. Picked it up a couple years ago in MD for about 65+tax… well worth it. It did have a funky note to it that reminded me of a lightly peated Campbeltown. Cheers!
I see a few swedes was here before me. I was gonna mention high Coast berg as well. High Coast core range is one of the best both as swede or compared to big scotch brands.
It always amazes me when I hear guys abroad buying alcohol on a discount. Would never happen here in sweden!
I guess we get lucky due to the fact that people aren't buying things like this over here in the US. Unfortunately, id its discounted it means we might not see it again 😢
@@alcoholcontent in sweden all alcohol above 3.5 abv is sold by Systembolaget. Which is a state run store. They have anti alcoholism policies that forbid them to use most known sales tactics. I.E their goal is to sell as little as possible.
@@alcoholcontent Sweden has a monopoly selling anything above 3.5% in stores. Since Systembolaget (government store) has their position, they won't really have any discounts (with that said - there are. sometimes, discounts - like christmas beer during the summer)
I live just one hour drive from High Coast in Sweden :). You should try and review High Coast Berg whisky. It is very good, better than Hav I think.
You do this really well
...lot of respect 👍
Much appreciated! Cheers!
Mackmyra has gone bankrupt
If you like smokey whisky High Coast Timber is the one you should try.
My hometown whiskey, made 10 min away from my house.
I wish we lived close to such a great distillery! Great stuff. Cheers!
ABSOLUT vodka is Swedis!
I have the high coast timmer, very very disappointing whisky!...
Watery texture, so soft, too soft, not very complex...
I need to try the others but not a bottle!
