Timber Country, in a Glass
"Timmer" is Swedish for "timber," and this whisky is High Coast's love letter to the logging heritage of Västernorrland — the forests and rivers that built the region the distillery calls home. As the peated member of the Origins series, it pairs full campfire smoke with first-fill bourbon sweetness: pear and vanilla against wood smoke and sea air.

Tasting Notes
Campfire smoke and freshly-cut grass on the nose with pear, vanilla, and garden herbs; the palate runs bold with charred oak, citrus, ginger, black pepper, and a saline sea-air note; long, ashy finish with citrusy smoke.
How to Enjoy
Neat or with a splash of water for smoke lovers — 48% ABV and bourbon-cask sweetness carry it beautifully. A few drops open the vanilla and soften the ash. Equally at home beside a campfire or in a smoked-Old-Fashioned riff.
