My first encounter with High Coast – or Box as they were originally known – happened to be in Gothenburg Airport.

A gorgeous smokey malt indeed.
Now rebranded as High Coast – would this duo from The Origins Series deliver?

Hav, 48%
Gentle clean smoke.
Lovely mouthfeel – like sitting beside a warm open fire – followed by a gorgeously tingling spicy dry finish which just excites my palate.
Simply divine.

Timmer, 48%
More of a mossy kind of smokiness.
There’s a depth & complexity to the mouthfeel before a delightful explosion of smoke embraces you like a long lost friend.
Hygge in a bottle.

High Coast supply a whole heap of information via their website – but information alone is no substitute for an enjoyable tasting.
This pair of Swedish Malts are simply fabulous.

Sounds nice, I have some samples of these too, I look forward to tasting them.
