The distillery uses 100% floor-malted local barley, kiln-dried over locally harvested heather and peat, and double distils it in small direct-fired pot stills before ageing it in first-fill wine and spirits casks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis approach creates fresh, crisp orchard fruit notes followed by gentle smoke: a bold and complex single malt with remarkable balance and a uniquely Danish style of smokiness, often likened to a hot summer's day on the moor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA New Nordic single malt that is rarely seen, it makes a distinctive gift for whisky lovers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat or with a drop of water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFloor malting is the traditional method of germinating barley by spreading it across a malting floor and turning it by hand, a labour-intensive practice that only a handful of distilleries still follow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrying the malt over burning heather as well as peat gives a lighter, more floral smoke than peat alone, which is part of what sets Stauning's smoky style apart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDirect-fired stills are heated by an open flame rather than steam, which can give the new spirit a fuller, richer character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFruit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh, crisp orchard fruit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmoke:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gentle heather and peat smoke.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBalance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bold, complex and balanced.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stauning Whisky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Danish Single Malt Whisky, smoked\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpression \/ Batch:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smoke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 94 proof (47% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCask \/ Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e First-fill wine and spirits casks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e West Jutland, Denmark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat or with a little water.
