  • Welcome back Dram Fam, to the Whisky Diary. This week we are taking a look at my recent visit to the Mackmyra Distillery in Sweden!
    Not only is Sweden is an absolutely stunning country, but it is home to the Mackmyra Distillery, arguably one of the most unique distilleries in the world! It has been designed from the ground up to be as energy efficient as possible, powered almost entirely by gravity.
    A massive thank you to Fredrik and the team at Mackmyra for giving me such an amazing opportunity and for their time!
    You can find out more about Mackmyra Whisky here: mackmyra.co.uk/
    The thoughts and opinions in this video are my own. I'm not, and will never be, paid to influence my opinion on any whisky or product I review. My palate isn't perfect, and we're all learning everyday... Whisky is a journey, I'm just bringing you along for the ride!
    Please leave a comment with your suggestions for where I should visit next!
    Just like Whisky, knowledge is better shared.
    Thanks for watching!

    Fantastic video, really informative and explained well from Fredrick… along with your awesome videography. Makes it a great watch.
    Would love a part 2 sometime 👍

    Hey Ben! I heard you talk about this video on Vin’s live, so I thought I would check it out. Very well done! It’s super interesting how they have the distillery set up. How cool to make the cuts yourself! If you ever feel like putting part 2 together, I would love to see their warehouse and kiln. Cheers!

    Fantastic looking distillery, drinking a dram in the sky bar would be a perfect way to relax after a long day tasting whiskey!

    • @itsgoodjuice

      Amen, brother! Bit high up for my tastes, though… you can see for MILES. Cheers! 🥃

    That’s the first vertical distillery I’ve heard of (let alone seen) great video!

    • @itsgoodjuice
      @itsgoodjuice  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s definitely unique. Fantastic idea though (apart from the stairs) 🥃🥃

    Fantastic! Such a cool distillery. Thanks for virtual tour. I have a bottle of Bjorksav on the way and I cannot wait to try it.

    • @itsgoodjuice
      @itsgoodjuice  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Man, the Bjorksav is probably my favourite of theirs. Let me know what you think!!

    • @peatbull3426
      @peatbull3426 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Björksav is a Birch sap. I just watch a review of this expression today. Man from the channel says its very herbal and spicy whisky. He said on the palate he tastes actually pine sap than birch but.. its all sounds very exiting so what about your opinion? 😁🥃🙋‍♂️

    @williamsaville806 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Definitely should get to the 2nd part if you can do at some stage it’s great 👍

  • @jdpjamesp
    @jdpjamesp 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Cracking video Ben. Really great to experience it with you a bit. If you're ever down in Bristol let me know and I'll go with you to Circumstance. A completely different kettle of fish, but really interesting to see the differences and similarities between a large distiller like Mackmyra and a microdistiller.

    • @itsgoodjuice
      @itsgoodjuice  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Cheers mate!! Yeah absolutely. I’ve always loved the micro-brewery world in comparison to the huge breweries, so should really do a side-by-side in the distilling world. Cheers! 🥃🥃🥃

    I'd really like to see some tours of either Kilchoman or Arran!

    • @itsgoodjuice
      @itsgoodjuice  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Been trying to get over to Arran for a while, but twice the ferry was cancelled! I’ll see what I can do. Kilchoman is awesome, though!

    @Collwila 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That looked like a very well explained tour and Fredrick didn't seem rushed like some of the tour guides I've seen. Having said that it was a one on one tour specially for you. Are there any other advantages of vertical apart from the space required to build. Very cool. Look forward to part two

    • @itsgoodjuice
      @itsgoodjuice  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Fredrick was a legend! What a guy.
      The amount of energy they save is insane. Gravity is such a free, under-utilised energy source!! Cheers

    Where's part 2?

    • @itsgoodjuice
      @itsgoodjuice  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Matt. Unfortunately a combination of terrible performance, the time taking to edit, and some bad footage meant it just couldn’t materialise in a way I was happy with. I think I’ll probably make something of it though.

      @@itsgoodjuice thanks for replying. I was preparing a presentation on the distillery so this video was hugely helpful either way. Cheers.
