Stauning is a distillery that blends Danish design with the art of whisky-making. Since 2005, Stauning has produced grain-to-glass Danish whisky from rye and barley grown a bicycle ride away from the distillery, a place of absolute tranquillity on the West Coast of Denmark.
By returning to the simplicity of its three ingredients – grain, yeast, and water – Stauning Whisky harnesses nature to capture the essence of its home whilst celebrating the collective effort involved in its creation. Stauning’s distillery is a modern Danish design icon, blending a mix of old- and new-world methods. Stauning whiskies are made from local grain and floor-malted in-house at the distillery. Distillation takes place in 24 small copper pot stills that are direct-fired to create complex flavours, adding weight and character to the whiskies.
Founded by a group of nine friends with a passion for whisky who wanted to push the boundaries of whisky-making and create expressions reflective of their heritage with distinct Danish character, each bottle of Stauning is produced in the same spirit of collaboration, grounded in the humility and conviction of a community that understands the power of working as one.
Stauning’s core range includes three distinct variants: Danish Rye, KAOS, and SMOKE, along with exclusive limited-edition bottles. Crafted sustainably, these expressions invite drinkers into a new world of whisky that captures both heritage and modernity with a uniquely Danish style and flavour.
