Woven Whisky has unveiled its latest blend, Experience N.20: Friends in the North, a limited-edition release that celebrates the dynamic Nordic whisky scene. This blend showcases the essence of whiskies from Finland, Sweden, and Norway, crafted through the journey of Peter Allison, Woven’s whisky maker, who sought to capture the spirit of the region.

Exploring the Nordic Whisky Landscape

Friends in the North is a testament to Woven’s “minimal” blending approach, designed to highlight the unique characteristics of each contributing distillery. The blend features spirits from Kyrö in Finland, High Coast and Agitator in Sweden, and Feddie Ocean Distillery in Norway. Each distillery brings its own distinctive flavors and techniques, resulting in a blend that embodies the best of Nordic whisky craftsmanship.

Distinctive Flavor Notes

Woven Whisky has carefully selected elements that represent the region’s diverse flavors. The blend offers “smoky rye bread” notes, derived from Kyrö’s rye whisky, while High Coast’s unpeated spirit adds a bright citrus element. Agitator’s contribution brings depth, and Feddie Ocean Distillery provides a smoky touch from its use of ex-Islay whisky casks. To round out the blend, Woven has added a single grain whisky from the North British Distillery, offering a “buttery backbone” that ties everything together.

Capturing Nordic Creativity

Peter Allison expressed the intention behind the blend, stating, “We wanted to create something that truly represents the vibrancy and creativity we encountered in the Nordic whisky scene. Each distillery brought not just its own techniques and geographical quirks to the table, but also a human dimension. Passionate people, forged by their unique culture, producing whiskies that speak of them and the place in which they operate. Friends in the North is our way of sharing those stories with the world.”
