Producer Description
"The Solera 02 from High Coast Distillery in Sweden. Traditionally Spanish in concept, Uniquely Nordic in its implementation and character.
A Solera is a maturation system based on fractional blending of younger spirits with older ones, developing character complexity. Each bottling holds a portion of whisky from the very first batch, like DNA. With every release, the whiskies gradually increase in age making each one unique. High Coast Distillery built a six-story Solera System in one of their warehouses. At the base are the Solera barrels, 225-litre Swedish oak barrels. Bottling happens at this level and the above 5 floors of ‘criaderas’ are bourbon barrels that hold 200 litres of whisky descending in age. The top criadera is the youngest where High Coast adds its proud distillate to mingle its way down - with barrels continuously topped up from the barrels above. Maturing through years of relentlessly cold winters, hot summers, and humid falls, this bold single malt whisky emerged."
