Price is scaled from $60 for 500ml bottle. The first and only distillery in Iceland. It uses all local ingredients - Icelandic barley, Icelandic water, and Icelandic sheep dung. Yup, sheep dung. This is one of the weirdest and worst whiskies I've had. It is a single malt, where the barley is dried with smoke from sheep dung; and that dung aroma, unfortunately, comes through. The color is very light, and it tastes like new make, because it's been matured for only 3 years in re-used casks from their Duty-Free-Exclusive 2-year Young Malt. All I can say is that whisky fanatics should be flocking away from Floki.
