Stauning Whisky Floor Malted Rye Whisky

Produced by Stauning Whisky on Denmark’s west coast near the village of Stauning, Stauning R.Y.E. is a distinctive Danish rye whisky made entirely from locally sourced rye and barley that is floor-malted at the distillery. The whisky is double distilled in small direct-fired copper pot stills and matured for approximately three to four years in virgin American white oak barrels. Bottled at 48% ABV, it delivers a full-bodied profile combining freshly baked rye bread, ripe fruit and vanilla with caramel, citrus and peppery oak.

Food Pairing: Smoked meats, rye bread with aged cheese, roasted pork, dark chocolate, cherry desserts, or toasted nuts with warming spices.

Tasting Notes: Full-bodied and grain-forward, balancing rye bread and ripe fruit with vanilla, caramel, citrus peel and distinctive peppery oak spice.

Nose: Freshly baked rye bread leads the aroma, accompanied by sweet fruit, confectionery notes and a gentle hint of pepper.

Palate: Rich and rounded, with dried fruit and ripe cherry joined by vanilla, citrus peel and assertive peppery oak.

Finish: Long, smooth and fruity, with lingering sweetness, vanilla and warming rye spice.

Serve: Enjoy neat at room temperature, over ice, or in rye-based cocktails such as an Old Fashioned or Manhattan.
