Description
Broken Bones is a craft distillery that grew out of passion of two friends who share family tradition of producing wine and spirits during the last century. Equipped with knowledge and experience of their forebears, Borut and Boštjan set out to create something different and original – Slovene spirits that combine the expert knowledge of traditional distilling with a distinctive Slovenian origin.
Try all three of our whiskies in an exclusive set:
Broken Bones Twis Single Malt Whisky 46%: Our classic fruity single malt with a hint of smoked malt. The nose opens with light and delicate barley notes, followed by newly cut grass, dandelion and other yellow flowers, then baked rhubarb tart, beetroot, parsnip. On the palate, gentle sugars are on the forefront with spicy caramel that lead into honey, toffee apple and nougat, with hints of tobacco, liquorice, and corn syrup, before a grittier spices emerge - clove, caraway, and pepper. The finish is long, with restrained oak and lingering notes of stout, coffee, and maple syrup.
Broken Bones Kika Peated Single Malt Whisky 46%: The influence of peat smoke from two directions. The whisky is made from smoked malt and matured in Slovenian oak casks as well as bourbon casks that previously held Scottish peated whisky. The nose shows soft peat with hints of ginger and curry, alongside smoked almonds, putty, and rich pistachio cream. Delicate smoky phenols carry through onto the palate and, with time, reveal sweet barley, gentle tannins, and a biscuity framework. The long finish moves from smoky mocha, smoked almonds to green tea, soot, and demerara sugar notes, leaving a slightly salty aftertaste with touches of pear.
Roberto Grande Blended Whisky 41%: A masterful blend of our distinctive Twis single malt whisky and a lively grain whisky. A pleasant honeyed and floral nose combined with vanilla, ripe berries, and gentle spices. On the palate it is soft and well rounded, with rich malty and caramel notes that develop into a warm, spicy character. The finish is long and delicate, with light woody notes.
The whiskies in this set offer insight into our ambition to create something exciting and bold, yet still dangerously smooth. Let yourself be enchanted.
The whiskies are non-chill-filtered and contain no added coloring.

Broken Bones About Whisky
How our whisky is made - from grain and fermentation to distillation and aging in a unique combination of Slovenian oak and bourbon barrels.
Milling and MashinG
We source all our malt from nearby regional producers and omplete the entire spirit-making process in our distillery. We begin by milling the malt, then mash it in stainless-steel mash tun, adding water at the optimal temperature to draw out the sugars. Water quality is essential: Slovenia’s alpine-pure water, with its distinctive mineral profile, supports longer wort fermentation, adding freshness and body to the whisky’s flavour.
Fermentation
The liquid wort from the mash tun is cooled and pumped into the washback. We add several types of yeast to ensure high flavour production fermentation. Along with maturation in selected barrels and the controlled distillation process, the richness of the flavours in our whisky comes from the long and carefully controlled fermentation cycle. The selection of the yeast and the temperature and duration of the process, which create our fruity, full-bodied, complex and elegant whisky, were refined through extensive experimentation. Our fermentation cycles last over 110 hours, which is considerably longer than the average of other producers. When the fermentation is completed our wash contains 8 % alcohol.
Distillation
After fermentation wash is slowly distilled by our distillery team in a controlled process of double pot distillation. The unique whisky we were after required equipment not easily available on the market, so we built our copper pot stills from scratch. During our testing period we also adopted a certain distillation protocol that we believe is essential for our full bodied yet elegant style of whisky, so everything is distilled strictly according to that procedure.We currently have two styles - a classic fruity (Twis) and a peaty (Kika) Single Malt Broken Bones Whisky. Beside that we are also making a blended whisky that combines our classic whisky and a carefully selected grain whisky.
Maturation
The combination of different oak barrels gives our distillate a distinctive and well-developed flavour, even during the early stages of maturation.Before filling the barrels, we dilute our new make spirit with purified water to 63% alcohol, arguably the optimal strength for maturation in wooden barrels. Here we should mention that over time a small amount of whisky evaporates from the barrels; the process distillers rather poetically refer to as 'the angels' share'.
Our whisky’s unique flavour also comes from the Slovenian sessile oak in which the spirit matures. These impart the desired full-bodied taste, with dominant fruity and floral notes. Prior to first use for the whiskies, Slovenian oak barrels host our wine brandy. For a more complex and elegant flavour, maturation also takes place in American white oak bourbon barrels. Our peated expression is made from peated malt and finished in barrels that previously contained the peatiest Scotch whisky from Islay for added punch.
While our whisky is maturing we provide the opportunity for you to taste the magic of the progress from new make spirit through to maturation in barrels of various types with our sample packs.
