Stauning Smoked Rye Sherry Cask: Smoky rye artistry meets European sherry cask elegance

The Stauning Distillery from Denmark combines two exceptional flavor profiles in its Smoked Rye Sherry Cask: the intense smokiness of a rye whisky malted over peat fires and the complex sweetness of European sherry casks. This limited release showcases the innovative spirit of these Danish whisky pioneers, who consistently refine their distinctive grain-to-glass philosophy. The locally grown rye is traditionally malted over an open fire and then matured in select sherry casks – a combination that unites Scandinavian craftsmanship with the sophistication of European cask maturation.

Taste experience

Stauning Smoked Rye Sherry Cask presents a captivating aroma profile, delighting with spicy rye, intense peat smoke, and the sweet, fruity notes of the sherry cask. On the palate, a multifaceted complexity unfolds: the smoky rye intensity is elegantly complemented by dark fruits, chocolate, and a hint of Christmas spices. Sherry cask maturation lends the whisky a velvety texture and a pleasant sweetness that harmonizes perfectly with the spicy bite of the rye. The finish is long and warm, with a balanced blend of smoke, oak, and dried fruit – a sensory experience that takes the taste buds on an aromatic journey through Denmark and Spain.

Special feature

What makes Stauning Smoked Rye Sherry Cask so special is the distillery's uncompromising craftsmanship. The rye is grown locally and traditionally malted over peat fires – a method that gives the whisky its distinctive smoky character. Double distillation in direct-fired copper pot stills and subsequent maturation in select European sherry casks create a unique flavor profile. Bottled without chill filtration and without added coloring, this whisky represents the pure essence of Danish innovation and a deep connection to the artisanal whisky tradition.
