70 cl - 40,6% vol.
Stauning R.Y.E. Grand Danois is a limited winter expression of our signature R.Y.E. Whisky, bringing a warmer, softer and more citrus-led character to a Danish classic. Matured in heavily charred virgin American oak and finished in French orange liqueur casks, it is made for the colder months - rich, comforting and quite festive.
It starts with locally grown Danish rye and barley from the West Coast of Denmark, 100% floor-malted and kiln dried at the distillery, then double distilled in 24 small, direct-fired copper pot stills.
The orange liqueur casks add layers of citrus, sweetness and spice while the structure and depth of the rye keeps everything in place. Expect vanilla, orange peel and toasted oak, followed by ripe cherry and warming spice. Full-bodied, smooth and inviting, with a rich sweetness that feels right at home in the winter.
Danish rye with a French winter twist
Grand Danois starts with something familiar: our signature Danish rye whisky. The difference comes at the end, with a final maturation in French orange liqueur casks that adds layers of crisp citrus zest, soft vanilla and orange to the depth and spice of the rye.
The name Grand Danois is a nod to both Stauning’s Danish heritage and the acclaimed French orange liqueur producer behind the casks. It brings those two references together in one expression - Danish at heart, with a clear French influence in the final maturation.
Grand Danois shows another side of Stauning R.Y.E.: familiar in structure, different in detail, and shaped by a cask finish that brings a distinctly seasonal character to the whisky.
