It features unpeated and peated whisky matured in ex-bourbon barrels, plus whisky matured in both ex-Oloroso sherry and Swedish oak casks. These casks were all matured in the distillery&#8217;s Bod\u00e5s Mine, a unique underground cavern, and have yielded just 2,049 bottles. The oldest whisky was distilled in 2007 with the remainder distilled and filled to cask in 2010.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Mackmyra1.jpg\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Mackmyra1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Mackmyra1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Mackmyra1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Mackmyra1-480x319.jpg 480w\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Mackmyra1.jpg\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-58384 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\"    sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-58384\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Mackmyra1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Mackmyra1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Mackmyra1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Mackmyra1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Mackmyra1-480x319.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Mackmyra was founded in 1999 by eight friends who decided to build Sweden&#8217;s first single malt distillery.
