The Ultimate Blast!

Hi.

I'm now back in NY after spending a week in Sweden with my colleagues and planning for the future. It will be very exiting years to come. Before I traveled back to Sweden we participated in one of New York’s biggest spirits events, The Ultimate Blast. It was a great night and we meet a lot of new Mackmyra fans. I had help from Laura Buccieri which is a great bartender and spokes person for Mackmyra.

Have a great Halloween weekend!

Mackmyra success on Facebook – 100 000 fans

We have now over 100 000 fans on our Facebook page

– It is fantastic that so many wants to follow us and know more about what is going on in the Swedish whisky distillery. Our followers range from private cask owners to those who have never tasted our whisky, says Lars Lindberger, responsible for social media at Mackmyra.

Mackmyra started the Facebook page in September 2009 and it quickly grew into a community for Facebook users interested in whisky and Swedish entrepreneurship. With over 100 000 likes, the Mackmyra Facebook page qualifies as one of the top 15 Facebook pages in Sweden.

– Almost daily we get questions and comments on our Facebook page, which makes it an excellent channel for communicating with those who are interested in what we do and what we stand for, Lars Lindberger continues.

Upstate New York!

The Restaurant DABA located in Hudson Valley, close to the Hudson River now serves Mackmyra. http://www.dabahudson.com/ They even have their own Mackmyra drink called The Swedish Whisky Sour. Its Mackmyra with their house made sour mix, some blueberry puree and a splash of soda. If you are close to Hudson Valley, go to DABA and try it, it’s delicious!  

         DABAs owner Daniel Nilsson has Swedish heritage so were extra proud to have our whisky there.

Cheers
