The Festival

: Pilsner malt from Vikingmalt in Halmstad.

 From Bålsjön, filtered through sand and carbon filters

The 200 liter Bourbon barrels were delivered freshly emptied from Kentucky. The 200 liter American oak barrel is charred and bound by Kelvin cooperage in Louisville, Kentucky.

The barrels were stored in a humid warehouse until October 2014 and lost some of their alcohol strength. From October 2014 to May 2020, the barrels were stored in a drier environment in Box warehouse number 3.

On 2020-05-19, 601 kg were emptied into the blending tank and the alcohol content was adjusted from 62.4% to a predetermined 54.3% in connection with bottling.

The Festival 2020 was bottled on 2020-05-19 in an edition of 1500 bottles + 43 pcs for fairs and tastings.

, like all High Coast bottlings, is neither colored nor cold-filtered. We recommend that 

 be allowed to sit in the glass for a while to open up. Feel free to add a couple of drops of water to enhance the aromas in the glass.

100% unpeated whisky matured in three 200-liter Bourbon barrels for 7.03 years and one 200-liter new charred American oak cask. The whisky in this cask was first matured for 3.3 years in Bourbon barrels and then transferred for a further 4.47 years in American oak.

For our festival bottlings we carefully select some of our best casks. The recipe for this year's festival bottling comes from unpeated whisky matured in Bourbon barrels and new charred American oak.
