ABOUT THIS NORWEST-EURO EXPRESS BOTTLING
Yet another new label for our first ever back from Denmark’s Fary Lochan distillery. It’s a small family distillery, now run by three siblings, and their mother. The distillery is named after the lake on the plot and an ancient spelling of the town, Farre, it’s located in.
Founder Jens-Erik Jorgensen, who sadly died in 2016, found inspiration from memories of smoked cheese from his mother used to smoke over fresh nettles. Jens-Erik made his first tests of smoking his whisky-malt with nettles in 2009.
When we learnt that the distillery was located in the village of Farre (which was previously known as Fary) we had that far far away fairy tail image in our head, and so our label is based up on an old style fairy tale woodland glade and a small glistening lake.
Nose
A soft and fruity nose, with lots of dark chocolate and hazelnut, Dried fruits; raisins and dates, with hints of roasted coffee.
Palate
Rich and luxurious with rich dark chocolate, Black Forest gateau, black cherry, and an underlying woody char.
About the Label

So our label is based up on an old style fairytale book illustration; a woodland glade and a small glistening lake. Surrounding it is a magical, sparkling forest, with springtime flowers and oversized onions representing their stills.
Pretty eh?
