Stauning Smoke 70cl Whisky

The mildly smoked single malt whisky from Denmark demonstrates that beautiful peated whisky doesn't just belong to the islands of Scotland. Stauning Smoke is made from local ingredients (grain and peat) which are malted on open floors. The kiln holds both peat and heather found in the landscape surrounding Stauning by Ringkøbing Fjord for a lighter more complex style of smoke. It's then double-distilled in small flame-heated pot stills (the distillery has 24 small, direct-fired stills, a very unique and interesting set-up) before being aged for five to six years in a mix of first-fill bourbon casks, first-fill Madeira casks, first-fill Jamaican rum casks, and Virgin American oak casks. It's bottled at 47% ABV.
