Stauning Rye Danish Whisky 70cl 48%
Situated on a fjord on the west coast of Denmark, this is a place of big skies, wind, moorland, and miles of shifting dunes. Like all great whiskies Stauning takes something from its surroundings and the people who live here, then distills it all into itself. This is a whisky which truly speaks of its origins, its terroir. The openness of the huge skies, the driving freshness of wind, the clarity of the light, all are there, somehow, in the glass. Nowhere makes a whisky like this. No-one else can. This is a different kind of rye whisky. The combination of malted grain and pot distillation makes the cereal notes shine in a smooth, full-bodied but nuanced whisky.
Who is it For? Stauning appeals to curious whisky drinkers on the hunt for innovation in whisky making and new flavour experiences. They are open-minded and explore all techniques, categories and expressions of whisky. They are just as happy tasting their fi ne whisky in an expertly made Manhattan cocktail as they are sipping it neat.
Curious Fact Direct firing creates complex and deep flavours into new make whisky thanks to the fact that a still heated in this way will reach significantly higher temperatures (up to 650°C). This causes any solids in the wash (dead yeast cells, barley husks, sugar compounds, proteins, and dextrins) to stick to the inner surface of the copper, in the same way as steak placed on a hot griddle pan will start to brown. This Maillard type reaction inside the still will help to create a range of different flavour compounds, like chocolate, caramel and roast nuts. Stauning RYE is matured in new American oak barrels and never chill filtered.
