Mackmyra Bjrksav (birch sap) is a Swedish single malt whiskyinspired by the long-awaited return of spring.

By including casks that were seasoned with Swedish birch sap wine, we have created a floral whisky with a fresh spiciness and sweet notes of vanilla fudge. Bjrksav is a collaboration with our friends at Grythyttan wine.
