The Whisky Smoke 70cl - Stauning is a sensory experience born in the wild region of Jutland, Denmark, where the art of distillation meets the passion for authentic flavors. This whisky stands out for its distinctive smokiness, achieved through the use of selected peat, which gives the spirit a bold and deeply enveloping character. The traditional production method, combined with careful distillation in copper stills, grants the Whisky Smoke a unique balance between smoky notes and sweet aromas of malt and vanilla.
On the nose, it opens with intense hints of burnt wood and delicate spices, followed by scents of bark smoke and a light note of dried fruit. On the palate, it reveals a full structure, with a warm and soft persistence that recalls burning coal and a slightly spicy finish. Perfect to enjoy neat or with a splash of water, this spirit is ideal for those who love to explore the complexities of a handcrafted whisky with a bold character, perhaps pairing it with smoked dishes or aged cheeses to enhance its aromatic richness.

The story
Born as a project of nine friends in 2005 in an old slaughterhouse in the village of Stauning (West Coast of Denmark), commercial production began in 2011. To meet growing demand, a purpose-built modern distillery was opened near the original site in 2018 while retaining artisanal practices such as floor malting and direct-fire distillation.
Distillation
Double distillation in small flame‑heated copper pot stills, keeping shapes and sizes that replicate the artisanal style of the original production.
Ageing
Maturation in oak casks with primary use of ex-bourbon and virgin American oak; experiments and finishes in ex-mezcal, ex-cognac, ex-calvados casks and casks used for vermouth and other liquids.
