  • Bottle of The E & K by Adelphi Fusion Whisky
    Item no.: 22227865449-8078

    For more than 30 years Adelphi has bottled whisky without owning a single distillery, and with The E & K the Scottish independent bottler ventures into a fusion of two whisky worlds.

    Expert's description

    The E & K by Adelphi 5 Year Old Fusion of Indian and Scotch Malt Whisky is bottled by the Scottish independent bottler Adelphi at 5 years old and 57.8%.

    The whisky combines Indian and Scotch malt whisky in a single expression, a fusion that shows how two vastly different climates and traditions can meet in the same glass. Only 800 bottles of this release exist, making it a rare guest on the shelf.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    The nose is complex with malt, honey and a hint of tropical fruit from the Indian component.

    Palate

    The palate is powerful and spicy with caramel, toasted malt and a fine balance between the two whisky styles.

    Finish

    The finish is long and warm with a closing dryness.

  • The Brisbane by Adelphi 5 Year Old fusion malt whisky bottle
    Item no.: 22227865449-8076

    Two continents, one glass. Australian malt meets Scotch heritage in a bottling that challenges the very definition of whisky.

    Expert description

    The Brisbane by Adelphi is a 5 year old fusion of Australian and Scotch malt whisky, bottled at cask strength at 57.5% ABV by the independent Scottish bottler Adelphi.

    A "fusion whisky" here means that whisky distilled in Australia has been blended with Scotch malt whisky from Glen Garioch and Glen Grant, two prominent Highland and Speyside distilleries, creating a bottling that bridges two whisky worlds on opposite sides of the globe.

    Only 925 bottles of this fusion were produced, with no added colouring and no chill filtration, allowing the raw interplay between the Australian and Scotch components to come through in full.

    Adelphi Distillery was founded in 1826 by the River Clyde in Glasgow, closed in the early 1900s, but was revived in 1993 as an independent bottler when a grandson of a former owner brought back the name with a philosophy of bottling only the very best casks.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Tropical fruit and eucalyptus from the Australian component meet dry Highland malt and a touch of hay.

    Palate

    Bold and cask-strength driven, with honey, toasted nuts and an exotic fruit sweetness unusual for Scotch whisky.

    Finish

    Long, warm and spiced, with a final hint of citrus peel and wood.

  • Ardnamurchan 2017 AD2 Spirit bottle from Ardnamurchan distillery on the west coast of Scotland
    Item no.: 22227865364-801

    The bottle did not say whisky, and that was deliberate. Scottish law requires three years in cask before the word can be used, and Ardnamurchan had not got there yet. So they called it Spirit and sent it out anyway, so people could follow the distillery from the very beginning.

    The Expert's Description

    Ardnamurchan 2017 AD2 Spirit is a Highland Single Malt Spirit from Ardnamurchan Distillery, bottled at 53.6% by Adelphi. It is the distillery’s second annual release of young spirit and may not be called whisky, because it has not spent the three years in cask that Scottish law requires.

    Ardnamurchan was built by the independent bottler Adelphi on the remote Ardnamurchan peninsula on Scotland’s west coast. There had never been a legal distillery on the peninsula before the site opened in 2014. The distillery makes two styles, one peated and one unpeated, matured in American and Spanish oak.

    The run of Spirit releases spans 2016 to 2019, and AD2 is the second in the sequence. The distillery’s first proper Single Malt Whisky arrived in September 2020. The spirit is neither chill filtered nor coloured.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Young and direct. Fresh malted barley first, then pear, green apple and a clear cereal sweetness. A light peat smoke sits beneath it all along with a clean, almost bready note you only meet in spirit that has not had time to be rounded off.

    Palate

    Powerful and raw in the good sense. Malt and grain fill the middle of the mouth, while the cask’s vanilla has only just begun to report in. There is a peated undercurrent and a peppery warmth, and at 53.6% the texture is oily and full.

    Finish

    Medium and dry. Grain, malt and a lightly smoky edge that lets go sooner than an older whisky would.

    Did You Know?

    Ardnamurchan draws all its electricity from a hydro generator on the river beside the distillery. The location is so remote that producing its own power was easier than running a supply network out there. The environmental case was there too, but the practicality came first.

    Item no.: 22227865392-8064

    It took decades before Bunnahabhain added an 18 Years Old to the core range, and the wait shows in every glass.

    Expert's Description

    Bunnahabhain 18 Years Old is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in ex-sherry casks and bottled at 46.3%.

    Eighteen years on sherry wood has given the whisky a golden depth and a maturity that builds on the distillery's lighter core style. It's a dram that takes its time unfolding in the glass and rewards whoever gives it the space to do so.

    The small batch assembly keeps every bottling at the same high standard, without sacrificing the variation single casks would otherwise bring.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Sugared nuts and a greeting from the sea, backed by generous caramel and leathery oak.

    Palate

    Soft sherry tones meet fruit and nuts across a full, round palate.

    Finish

    Dry, spiced impressions mixed with light sea salt.

    Named after a Scottish merchant who helped open Japan to the West in the 1800s, The Glover unites two whisky traditions in one cask.

    Expert Description

    The Glover by Adelphi 18 Year is a Fusion of Japanese and Scotch Malt Whisky, bottled at 49.2%.

    The whisky is named after Thomas Blake Glover, a Scottish businessman who played a central role in opening Japan to the West at the end of the Edo period. Adelphi Selection, an independent Scottish bottler founded in 1993, composed this fusion of Japanese and Scotch malt whisky as a tribute to Glover's historic ties between the two countries.

    Tasting Notes

    Item no.: 22227865400-7201

    Stauning Young Rye 2018 is the 16th edition in the series – and the one with the lowest ABV in the early Rye chronology. It is an approachable and floral edition with rye character without too much edge.

    Expert description

    Stauning Young Rye 2018 February is a Danish Rye Whisky bottled at 43.3% and distilled in 2014. Released February 2018 as the 16th edition in the Rye series. Made from 100% Danish rye malt, floor-malted in-house. 2,541 bottles. Non-chill filtered with natural colour.

    The 2014 distillation year marks a point when Stauning was still a small team with a passionate approach to craft. These batches are expressions of the early Stauning – before the expansion and increased production.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Floral and lightly fruity with rye bread, honey and light blossom. Softer and more approachable than the stronger Young Rye expressions.

    Palate

    Malt-sweet and lightly spiced. Rye core, mild pepper and a little citrus. Round and easy to enjoy.

    Finish

    Short to moderate with malt sweetness and light spice.

    Item no.: 22227865446-5104

    Whiskymessen 2018, cask number two. Same fair, different cask, a new character. 62.6% from Ørbæk Brewery.

    Expert description

    Nyborg Distillery Whiskymessen 2018 (62.6%) is an organic Danish Single Malt Whisky bottled at 62.6% cask strength for the Danish Whisky Fair in 2018. Like the corresponding 64.6% bottling, it was produced during the distillery's Ørbæk era and represents a separate cask with its own flavour character. The two Whiskymessen 2018 bottlings complement each other and offer enthusiasts the opportunity to compare what two casks from the same period and base spirit can produce. A standalone and rare bottling.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Fresh grain base with a clean organic character. Light sweetness and a delicate plum fruitiness. Discreet cask influence allowing the distillate to shine through.

    Palate

    Gentle and approachable at 62.6% with integrated warmth. Fresh apple fruit and light sweetness. A warm finish on the palate.

    Finish

    Clean and short to medium with fresh grain notes.

    It is unusual for a distillery to release two separate event bottlings at the same fair. By releasing two casks at Whiskymessen 2018, Nyborg Distillery offered collectors and enthusiasts the chance to experience how different two casks from the same distillery and era can be.

  • Bottle of Springbank 25 Year Old Single Cask from Springbank Distillery in Campbeltown
    Item no.: B22227865434-1046

    One single cask, 25 years, and only 130 bottles - the kind of arithmetic that makes collectors sit up. Springbank 25 Year Old Single Cask is an independent bottling without equal.

    Expert Description

    Springbank 25 Year Old Single Cask is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled in 1991, matured in a Hogshead cask and bottled at full cask strength, 49.7%.

    The whisky comes from a single Hogshead cask, cask number 13/127-21 (414), and a full 25 years of maturation yielded just 130 bottles. As an independent bottling without filtration or added colour, this release shows Springbank in its most unfiltered and personal form.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Old oak and dried fruit meet a hint of sea air and beeswax.

    Palate

    Full and complex, with caramel, spice and a lightly oily structure that carries the high strength elegantly.

    Finish

    Long and warm, with a lingering oak note that slowly gives way to a dry, salty close.

    Did You Know?

    A Hogshead is one of the most common cask formats in Scotch whisky production, but when a single cask like this one yields only 130 bottles after 25 years, it clearly shows how much whisky evaporates as the "angels' share" over such a long time.

    A code without a solution is just a riddle. The Glenlivet gave its whisky a name that asked more questions than it answered, and let the flavour guess the rest.

    Expert Description

    Glenlivet Miniature Cipher Limited Edition is a Single Malt Scotch Whisky in miniature format, bottled at 48%.

    Cipher was one of The Glenlivet's limited releases, developed as part of a campaign in which the distillery played with mystery and code themes around the flavour. The 5 cl miniature was intended as an introduction to a more powerful side of the distillery's style than the one found in the core range's 40% expressions, with noticeable weight and spice already on the nose.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Fresh and fruity in typical Glenlivet style, with a sweetness that hints at the power waiting in the palate.

    Palate

    Powerful with pronounced spice that builds across the palate.

    Finish

  • Bottle of Glenlossie Berry Bros 23 Year Old Speyside Single Malt whisky
    Item no.: 22227865449-7042

    Twenty-three years is a long time to sit still in a Scottish warehouse – long enough for a barely-known Speyside malt like Glenlossie to become something quite different from where it started. Berry Bros & Rudd has captured exactly that moment.

    Expert's Description

    Glenlossie 1992/2016 Berry Bros 23 Year Old is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky bottled at 46%.

    Distilled in 1992, the whisky was sourced by Berry Bros & Rudd, Britain's oldest wine and spirits merchant, which has traded rare casks under the Berry's Own Selection label since its founding in 1698. This Glenlossie comes from a single cask, No. 3473, and wears its 23 years openly – both in colour and in its mature, rounded character.

    Glenlossie rarely reaches the world as a standalone single malt, since most of its output goes into blends. A release this old from an independent bottler is therefore a rare chance to meet the distillery at its most mature.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Waxy honey and dried apricot sit over a lightly nutty malt. Given time in the glass, a faint soapy, floral note emerges too, typical of older Speyside malts.

    Palate

    Soft and round, with toffee, lightly toasted almonds and a hint of old oak polish. The 23 years have smoothed every edge, without the whisky losing its cereal core.

    Finish

    Dry and faintly tannic, with a lingering honeyed note and a distant whisper of spiced wood.

    Rum and whisky are no strangers. Fary Lochan chose to rest the distillate in rum casks, then bottle it straight at cask strength. 64.7% is hard to ignore – this is a whisky that demands respect and a little water.

    Expert description

    Fary Lochan Rum Edition Batch 1 is a Danish Single Malt Whisky finished in rum casks and bottled at cask strength 64.7%, 50 cl. Fary Lochan distillery in Give, Jutland, has a tradition of experimenting with finishes in unconventional casks. Here it is the rum cask that takes control – sweet, exotic, and with a clear tropical fruit note over Fary Lochan's malted base. Bottled without chill filtration and with natural colour at cask strength.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Sugarcane, tropical fruit, banana, honey and warm oak.

    Item no.: 22227865388-399

    A single cask, chosen with a clear purpose in mind. Calle Cask No 1 is one of the rarer Highland Park releases, where the whisky has never touched any other cask — what you taste is exactly what that one cask gave.

    Expert Description

    Highland Park Calle Cask No 1 is a Single Orkney Malt Whisky from a single cask, bottled at cask strength 59.8%.

    As a single cask bottling, the entire release comes from one and the same cask, without being blended with whisky from other casks. That makes every bottle part of a unique, unrepeatable batch, where the cask's full character comes through directly at high strength.

    The powerful ABV means the whisky benefits from a few drops of water, which loosens up the layers of spice and fruit that the cask strength otherwise holds tightly together.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Toasted malt and dark honey, with a warm spice trail and a hint of sherried nuts.

    Palate

    Intense and full-bodied, with caramel, dried fruit and a clear, warming peat.

    Finish

    Long and powerful, with lingering spice and a final smoky note.

    Item no.: 22227865468-289

    The first chapter of a trilogy that began with a question: what happens to Islay smoke when it is left for a quarter of a century? The answer is not less smoke — it is smoke with manners.

    The expert's description

    Big Peat 25 years Vintage 1992 Gold Edition is an Islay Blended Malt Scotch Whisky bottled at 52.1 % cask strength.

    The whiskies were distilled in 1992 and bottled in 2017 in an outturn of 3,000 bottles. The release is neither chill filtered nor coloured and is the first of three in Douglas Laing's Vintage Series.

    The Gold Edition opened a trilogy that continued with the Platinum Edition at 26 years and The Black Edition at 27 years. All three come from the same 1992 vintage and are built from some of Islay's most sought after single malts.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Complex and nuanced. Smoke meets caramel and vanilla, with dried fruit, sea salt and a light medicinal tone behind.

    Palate

    Full and oily. Powerful peat smoke up front, balanced by honey and burnt sugar, followed by dark chocolate, leather and spice.

    Finish

    Long and warm, with peat and sweetness fading slowly. An elegant dryness of oak and nuts closes it.

  • Bottle of Stauning HEATHER September 2017 Danish Single Malt Whisky with heather
    Item no.: 22227865400-508

    Heather on the moors of West Jutland. Stauning has used it since the beginning – an ingredient that gives HEATHER its floral and honeyed character.

    Expert description

    Stauning HEATHER September 2017 is a Danish Single Malt Whisky bottled at 48.7% and made with heather added during the drying of the malt. Distilled 2013-2014 and released in September 2017. Heather is a traditional ingredient in Nordic brewing and distilling, and Stauning revives the tradition in the HEATHER series. The result is a whisky with a unique floral and honeyed profile – clearly different from the rest of Stauning's range.

    HEATHER is one of Stauning's most original expressions. It is not just a variation on a theme – it is a whisky that could not come from any other region. The Jutland heather moor is the invisible ingredient.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Heather and wildflowers, light fruits and a discreet honey sweetness. Very aromatic and fresh.

    Palate

    Floral and sweet with malt, honey and heather tones. Light spice and a mild fruit core. Elegant and different.

    Finish

    Moderate and floral with blossom and a little sweetness. Fades gently.

  • Balvenie Tun 1509 Batch 4 Speyside Single Malt Whisky bottle
    Item no.: 22227865428-5003

    Tun 1509 is not a cask but a vat. A large, old wooden tun standing in warehouse 24, where whisky from several barrels is left to sit together for months until the edges have worn off and the whole thing speaks with one voice.

    The expert's description

    Balvenie Tun 1509 Batch 4 is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky matured in bourbon casks and sherry casks, married in Tun 1509 and bottled at 51.7 % without chill filtration.

    The series works by having David Stewart select a small number of casks, empty them into the large wooden tun known as Tun 1509 and let the contents stand and find each other over several months. Batch 4 is assembled from 23 casks, few enough that each individual cask can still be felt.

    Bottling happens without chill filtration and at high strength, so the oils and fatty acids filtration would otherwise strip out are allowed to stay. That gives a denser texture and a fuller mouthfeel than the standard bottlings of the distillery carry.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Honey, dried fruit and cinnamon. Behind it sit vanilla, ginger and a note of old oak.

    Palate

    Full and oily with malt, honey and warm spice. The high strength gives it an edge without turning sharp.

    Finish

    Long and warm with spice, dried fruit and a soft close of oak.

    Item no.: 22227865396-240

    High above the Glenlivet valley sits a hill that once mattered a great deal to smugglers. Creag An Innean gave them a view over the road south, and an edge over the excisemen.

    Expert Description

    Glenlivet Nordic Single Cask 2017 Creag An Innean is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky, drawn from a single Oloroso sherry cask at cask strength of 61.2%.

    The whisky is a distillery bottling from The Glenlivet, released specifically for the Scandinavian market, with only 618 bottles from this one Spanish Oloroso sherry cask (cask no. 58013). The name Creag An Innean refers to a hill near the distillery that, in the 19th century, served as a lookout point for whisky smugglers heading south to the market in Dundee, a place from which they could watch for excisemen and plan their routes well in advance.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    A rich aroma of sweet dates and sherry-soaked raisins, carried by spiced oak and liquorice, with caramel, toffee, candied orange peel and a touch of ginger.

    Palate

    Spiced cinnamon meets soft raisins and freshly baked ginger biscuits, well balanced against a sweetness reminiscent of strawberry jam.

    Soft with a discreet, spiced close.

    The name Creag An Innean is Gaelic and translates roughly as "the crag by the cattle fold", a reminder that the land around The Glenlivet was for centuries shaped as much by farming and cattle as by the illicit distilling that later made the place famous.

Fad no 6 is the sixth cask in the distillery's named cask series, and "Kræn Kræmmer" is the character name associated with this specific cask.

  • Caol Ila 15 Years Unpeated Style 2018 official bottle without peat smoke
    Item no.: 22227865462-1000

    Once a year, Caol Ila does something unexpected: they stop the peat and malt barley with untouched grain. The result is Caol Ila Unpeated Style – a window into what the distillery tastes like once smoke is taken out of the equation.

    Expert's description

    Caol Ila 15 Years Unpeated Style 2018 is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky bottled in 2018 at cask strength 59.1% – one of the distillery's rarest official releases. Here the barley has been malted without peat.

    Unpeated Style is a limited annual release Diageo has produced since the early 2000s, primarily for the Feis Ile festival on Islay. The 2018 edition shows what 15 years in oak casks gives to a distillate not defined by smoke.

    Without peat smoke, Caol Ila's true distillate character emerges – flowers, vanilla, fresh fruit and richness from maturation. It is a different Caol Ila from the one people know, and for those accustomed to the island's smoke, it can feel almost foreign. That is precisely what makes it fascinating.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Floral and fruity – apple, pear and white flowers. Vanilla and honey from the oak, with a creamy sweetness that has no parallel in the peated bottlings.

    Palate

    Rich and full without smoke's structure. Ripe fruit – peach, apricot – with soft oak and an almost diaphanous sweetness. Cask strength gives warmth and depth.

    Finish

    Long and slightly exotic. Vanilla, ripe fruits and a note of floral honey – completely unlike the familiar biting close of smoke.

    Item no.: 22227865403-339

    The name doesn't lie: this blend carries a notably higher malt content than most blended whiskies, giving it a body closer to a single malt.

    Expert Description

    The Blend of Nikka Maltbase is a Japanese Whisky, bottled at 45%.

    As the name suggests, the blend has an unusually high proportion of malt whisky from Nikka's Yoichi and Miyagikyo distilleries, topped up with a smaller share of grain whisky. That delivers a deeper, more complex flavour than many other Japanese blends while keeping a round, approachable character.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Dried fruit and caramel with a touch of smoke and spiced oak.

    Full-bodied and round with honey, dark chocolate and a fine spice.

    Item no.: 22227865411-33

    Every story has a first chapter. For Kilchoman, this bottle was it — the very first whisky the distillery ever sent out into the world, and the proof that a small farm distillery on Islay could make something people would remember.

    Expert's description

    Kilchoman Inaugural Release is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 3 years old and bottled at 46 %.

    The whisky was released in 2009 and is the very first bottle of malt whisky Kilchoman ever put its name to. It was matured for between 2.5 and 3 years in bourbon casks, before receiving a finishing period of 6 months in sherry casks — a recipe that set the tone for much of what the distillery has since become known for.

    The release was met with considerable acclaim from the start, including 92 points from the respected publication Malt Advocate — an unusually high accolade for a distillery still in its absolute infancy.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Young, energetic peat smoke meets citrus peel and a sweetness of honey and vanilla from the sherry finish.

    Palate

    Direct and spiced, with peppery smoke, sweet malt and a light fruitiness confirming the cask finish's influence.

  • Bottle of Glentauchers 19 Year Old Signatory Vintage Speyside whisky
    Item no.: 22227865438-372

    Glentauchers is a distillery most people only know from blends – but this 19 year old single cask bottling from Signatory Vintage shows what the spirit can do when it's allowed to stand alone.

    Expert's Description

    Glentauchers 1996/2015 was distilled in the mid-1990s and bottled in November 2015 by independent bottler Signatory Vintage, after 19 years of maturation in two bourbon casks, Cask No. #1407 and #1408.

    The whisky is bottled at 49.9% with natural colour. 328 bottles were filled from the two casks, making this a fairly limited release.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Soft fruit, honey and a light vanilla tone from the bourbon casks.

    Palate

    Round and elegant, with pear, caramel and a hint of spice.

    Finish

    Medium length, soft and lightly sweet.

    Investment Potential

    With 19 years of maturation and only 328 bottles from two casks, this whisky belongs to the single cask releases that often become sought-after among collectors as bottles become rarer.

    Did You Know?

    Glentauchers is primarily used as a key ingredient in well-known blended whiskies such as Buchanan's and Ballantine's, and it's relatively rare to find the spirit bottled as a single malt.

  • Highland Park Dannebrog bottle at cask strength
    Item no.: 22227865388-322

    Some names leave no doubt who they're made for. Dannebrog is Highland Park's tribute to the Danish market — a 13-year-old release bottled at cask strength, well beyond the strength of the distillery's standard releases.

    Expert Description

    Highland Park Dannebrog is a Single Orkney Malt Whisky, 13 years old and bottled at cask strength 60.3%.

    The name is a direct nod to the Danish flag and to Highland Park's long relationship with the Danish whisky market. At 60.3%, it's considerably stronger than the distillery's standard releases, giving a more intense and concentrated expression of the characteristic Orkney style.

    The high strength means the whisky tolerates — and often benefits from — a few drops of water, which opens up the layers of spice, fruit and peat.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Toasted malt and dark honey meet a warm, spiced peat and a hint of dried fruit.

    Palate

    Intense and full-bodied, with caramel, ginger and a distinct, warming peat smoke.

    Finish

    Long and powerful, with lingering spice and smoke.

  • Ardbeg Twenty One 21 Year Old Committee Release 2016 Islay Single Malt Whisky bottle
    Item no.: B22227865466-148

    21 years on cask and only 8,268 bottles in the world, an age Ardbeg rarely puts on display.

    Expert Review

    Ardbeg Twenty One 21 Year Old Committee Release 2016 is an Islay Single Malt Whisky distilled in spring 1995, bottled in 2016 after 21 years of maturation, at 46%.

    The release is a Committee Release, reserved for members of Ardbeg's own fan community, and is among the oldest vintage bottles the distillery has ever released at this scale.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Restrained, mature peat alongside a soft sweetness that only truly shows after so many years on cask.

    Palate

    Rounded and well balanced, where the classic Ardbeg smoke has been smoothed by decades of maturation without losing its identity.

    Finish

    Long and elegant, with a lasting smoky warmth that speaks to the age.

  • Bottle of Stauning Young Rye 2016 November Danish Rye Whisky 52.3%
    Item no.: 22227865400-308

    November 2016. Stauning releases the 13th edition of the Rye series – and calls it "Young Rye" with a transparency about age that was unusual in the whisky world at the time.

    Expert description

    Stauning Young Rye 2016 November is a Danish Rye Whisky bottled at 52.3% and distilled in 2013. Bottled March 2016 and released November 2016 as the 13th edition in the Rye series. Made from 100% Danish rye malt, floor-malted in-house. Approximately 3,000 bottles. Non-chill filtered. Sold without original box.

    The Young Rye designation is Stauning's way of saying: what you see is what you get. Young, but not undeveloped – the rye malt provides a natural spiciness that does not require decades of maturation to make sense.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Fresh and spicy with green apple, rye bread and citrus peel. Intense and lively for its age.

    Palate

    Sharp and spiced rye core with pepper, ginger and light sweetness. Energetic and clear in profile.

    Finish

    Shorter with spiced warmth and light oak. Clean and direct.

    Did you know?

    When Stauning called their early editions "Young Rye", they broke with an industry angle of hiding age behind terms like "NAS" (No Age Statement). It was a deliberate choice of honesty that earned respect in the whisky community.
