STAUNING HØST
The flagship of Stauning Danish Whisky’s portfolio, is available in selected Waitrose stores across the UK
Stauning HØST, which launched in the UK in April 2024, will be available in 126 Waitrose stores nationwide and online on Waitrose.com and WaitroseCellar.com, marking the first major supermarket listing for the Stauning, the award-winning Danish whisky. Partnering with Waitrose marks an important milestone for Stauning, as we continue our mission to champion Rye whisky to a UK audience.
Retailing at £47, Stauning HØST was created as an introduction to our rye whisky portfolio; bottled at 40.5%, it is a marriage of single malt and rye whiskies. HØST is made from local Danish grains grown just a bike ride away that are 100% floor malted. Making HØST one of the few 100% floor malted whiskies in the world. Stauning distils our whisky using 24 direct-fired small copper pot stills to give depth and character. All our whisky is matured and bottled on-site with no additives or chill filtering.
HØST, Danish for “Harvest”, is delicate, smooth and balanced
HØST is the perfect sipping whisky for beginners and connoisseurs alike. The rye forward whisky is aged in first-fill bourbon and heavily charred new American white oak casks before being finished in first-fill port casks, resulting in a fruit-forward spirit with floral undertones. On the nose, HØST delivers notes of vanilla, beeswax and citrus followed by meadow honey, toffee, apple, and red berries on the palate, with a syrupy cinnamon, oak, and subtle spice finish.
Alex Munch, co-founder of Stauning says:
“We are so pleased to be able to announce our Waitrose listing. As one of the UK’s most premium retailers, it is a really important step in Stauning’s journey and we can’t wait to showcase HØST amongst a wider audience. Our aim is to continue to be accessible to all audiences and launching in Waitrose has provided us with an opportunity to continue to share our story and show what makes our whiskies so special”.
