Tasting:  Bitter sweet. Camphor, fresh cut grass, orange peel, lemon, hints of pine, hints of leather.

Comments: 

A light, grassy herbal Mackmyra, not so much of the piney notes that characterise Swedish whisky for me. Very little smoke, just a tiny hint, but there's a spicy, even chemical note that reminds me of camphorated oil (old Chinese remedy for bruises - don't ask me if it works). Nice whisky.

Verdict:

I like this.
