This year’s holiday collection features a festive lineup of carefully crafted spirits, including a limited-edition Swedish Single Malt Whisky, a barrel-aged Rum, and a unique, spiced Christmas Snaps.
Santa -24
The star of this year’s trio is the Santa -24, an exceptional Swedish single malt whisky that marks the eighth release in the beloved Santa series. Distilled in Lillkyrka, Örebro County, this whisky has been maturing for 13 years in a combination of Cognac, Sherry, and French oak casks, creating a layered, sophisticated profile. With a delicate smokiness and bold fruitiness, SANTA -24 delivers a rich and complex flavor journey, perfect for the holiday season. The interplay between sweet sherry notes, elegant cognac influence, and the depth of French oak ensures an unforgettable tasting experience for whisky enthusiasts.
Elf-24
In addition to the whisky, Lihnell’s Distillery presents Elf -24, the fifth installment in the Elf series. This barrel-aged rum is a blend of small Spanish and Swedish oak casks, producing a spirit brimming with citrus sweetness and holiday spice. Its fruity and spicy profile conjures the warmth and magic of Christmas, making it a perfect addition to any festive gathering.
O Helga Natt
Rounding out the collection is O Helga Natt, a spiced Christmas snaps that has been aged for six months in bourbon casks and infused with orange peel and cardamom. This seasonal snaps is both mildly sweet and subtly spiced, offering notes of dried fruit and Christmas spices. Whether served chilled as a classic snaps or as a smooth after-dinner drink, it’s a delightful addition to the holiday table.
