Stauning El Clásico
El Clásico from Stauning in Denmark is said to be the first rye whisky aged in vermouth casks and the flavours marry extremely well, like a good Manhattan. What began as an experiment, turned out to be phenomenally successful. There's a perfect balance of bittersweetness on the finish, and it holds its own both neat or as the leading component in a whisky cocktail. Very versatile.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Orange marmalade, spiced stewed apple, touches of red fruit sweetness, and cinnamon fudge.
Palate
Dried cherry, dark toffee, and more orange citrus, with a crack of black pepper that gives way to classic rye spice a few sips in.
Finish
A touch of herbaceous vermouth bitterness appears, with toasty oak.
