The distillery has made a name for itself by producing single malt whisky using exclusively Swedish ingredients. Mackmyra operates its innovative Gravity Distillery, which opened in 2011 and is known for its environmentally friendly and efficient production. This distillery uses gravity to transport ingredients from top to bottom through the various production phases, significantly reducing energy consumption.
Popular releases include Mackmyra Brukswhisky, known for its light, fruity notes with hints of vanilla and apple, and Mackmyra Svensk Rök, a smoky whisky with notes of peat and herbs.
