For the first time, 12 distilleries from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden will come together under one banner to showcase the depth, diversity, and creativity of Nordic whisky at the UK’s leading whisky event. Teerenpeli Distillery will participate the event to release a new single malt whisky for European market with Anssi Pyysing, the Founder and CEO of Teerenpeli Distillery participating a discussion session with three other Nordic distilleries on Friday at 7 pm.
The dedicated Nordic Zone will shine a spotlight on the unique terroir, climate, and craftsmanship shaping whiskies across the region. Visitors will be able to meet the makers behind the brands, discover award-winning bottlings, and explore how Nordic traditions and forward-thinking approaches are redefining what whisky can be.
“The Nordic whisky category has seen incredible growth and recognition in recent years,” said Jan Groth, Head of the Nordic Whisky Collaboration. “By coming together and presenting 12 different distilleries at The Whisky Show, we want to demonstrate both the strength of our individual producers and the shared Nordic values of authenticity, sustainability, and innovation.”
Formally founded earlier this year, the Nordic Whisky Collaboration reflects a shared ambition: to put Nordic whisky on the map as a distinctive and credible category in the global whisky world. While each distillery has its own style and identity, they are united by common values and shared history.
