the swedish malt
50 cl, 43% vol
THE TASTE OF SWEDISH INNOVATION
The Swedish Malt is our first whisky and, in many ways, the starting point for Agitator. It was created to show what Swedish single malt can be when different elements are allowed to work together: four cask types, cold distillation and a balanced flavour profile that makes use of the contrasts between the different casks.
The whisky matures in new American oak, bourbon casks, sherry casks and chestnut casks. Together, they bring notes of vanilla, fruit, subtle salinity and a hint of smoke. The result is a balanced Swedish single malt with both breadth and character.
TASTING NOTES
Nose: Fruity aroma with clear notes of citrus, red apple and pineapple, alongside dried fruit and a light smokiness.
Taste: Vanilla, sweet fruit, salinity and light smokiness.
