Torv Rök™

Torv Rök is the key to Cold-peated whiskey

Torv Rök is a first-of-its-kind granular peat product for finishing spirits. Torv Rök (roughly pronounced Torv Rook) means “smoky peat” in Swedish. It evokes the northern European heritage of Aitkin County and celebrates the ubiquitous, valuable peat resources of Minnesota. 

The patent-pending Aitkin County Process™ of infusing Torv Rök during the final stages of the aging process transforms distilled spirits into rich, flavorful products that evoke the timeless and unique character of the northern boreal landscape. Instead of the traditional smoky flavor common to some Scotches and whiskeys, the Aitkin County Process produces a more subtle peaty flavor that brings to mind the timeless nature of bogs and fens. It’s earthy and natural  – think mushrooms, dark chocolate and grassy floral flavors with an incredibly smooth whiskey finish. 

Torv Rök will soon be available to distillers everywhere. Contact us to learn about opportunities to introduce cold-peated spirits into your product line.
