Einar’s Tóra Sigmundardóttir

Einar’s Tóra Sigmundardóttir, 6 YO, 55.5 %

This is release 21 from Einar’s Distillery on the Faroe Islands. Fully matured in ex-bourbon for six years and released on 2025-12-12. Limited to 751 bottles. See the website for more info.

Nose: Rich and malty with warming orchard fruits. Tropical notes emerge with time, alongside generous vanilla, sun-warmed oak and toasted marshmallows.

Taste: Full bodied. A classic bourbon cask experience with rich malt, creamy vanilla and lively white pepper. A gentle alcohol sting adds energy without upsetting the balance.

Finish: Medium long. The bourbon cask influence remains bold and expressive, joined by unsalted peanuts and a creamy milkshake character.

Comment: Bourbon cask indulgence. 

Score 86/100
