Stauning Kaos Danish Whisky 70cl 46%

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.Kaos - A bit of smoke, a bit of spice, sweetness and a lot of complexity and structure come together in an extremely versatile whisky.Who芒??s 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 fine whisky in an expertly made Horse芒??s Neck cocktail as they are sipping it neat.Curious FactThe first part of the whisky making process is WHISKEYing, activating enzymes within the grain which convert starches into fermentable sugars. The barley and rye are grown within 3km of the distillery and the local community are proud to contribute to the whisky. Stauning is one of a tiny number of distillers to WHISKEY its own rye and barley. The grain is spread out along a long lane bordered by two low concrete walls that are bridged by the WHISKEYing machine, designed by our founders and made by a local blacksmith. It consists of vertical rotating arms and a spraying mechanism. Elegant, beautiful 芒?娄 and it works.
