70cl - 48% vol.

Stauning R.Y.E. Whisky captures the essence of Denmark’s rich heritage. Our signature malt whisky is crafted from 100% locally sourced, floor-malted Danish rye and barley, and offers depth of flavour and balance with a long, fruity finish.

A distinctly Danish approach to whisky: Designed with simplicity and a commitment to traditional craftsmanship, Stauning Rye is double distilled in small direct-fired copper pot stills and matured in virgin American white oak barrels.

The result is a smooth, full-bodied whisky with a distinctive, robust character, featuring notes of vanilla, caramel, and ripe cherries, reflecting over 2000 years of rye cultivation on the west coast of Denmark.

AWARDS

Internationally Recognised Danish Whisky

Stauning R.Y.E. contains only floor malted rye and barley.

Open-fired stills creates complex and deep flavours thanks to the fact that a still heated this way will reach significantly higher temperatures (up to 650˚C). This causes any solids in the wash 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 roasted nuts.

Serving suggestions

Aside from enjoying it neat, we also love a Danish Old Fashioned:

- 6 cl Stauning R.Y.E.
- 3 Dashes of Angostura Bitters
- 1 Sugar cube or syrup
- 1 Orange Peel

Muddle sugar and bitters in a shaker. Add ice and R.Y.E. whisky, then stir well. Strain into an ice-filled tumbler. Garnish with an orange peel.
