Copenhagen Distillery Whisky

Whisky distilled in the heart of the Danish capital, where wind-turbine electricity and recycled cork set the tone for a distillery built on sustainability. Copenhagen Distillery recirculates its production water four to five times before releasing it as fully unpolluted rainwater. This is urban Danish distilling, where the eye is treated just as much as the palate.

Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197279983

Valby is not the first place you think of when you think single malt. But since 2017, Copenhagen Distillery has been distilling Danish malt in an industrial quarter south of the city centre, and the Refined Edition is the distillery's core expression. Batch No 1 from 2021 is one of the concrete results of that work.

Tasting notes
Nose
Elegant and nuanced. Fresh fruit and malt with light vanilla and honey from the oak maturation. Citrus and a hint of light plum sweetness.
Palate
Full and well-rounded at 54.9%. Sweet malt and fruit with oak and spices. Complexity that matches the strength without dominating the palate.
Finish
Long and elegant. Sweetness and spice hold evenly and fade slowly.

About Copenhagen Distillery

Copenhagen Distillery is a Danish micro-distillery producing whisky rooted in urban craft tradition in the heart of Copenhagen. For newcomers, it's an approachable, experimental whisky with a striking visual identity; for the sustainability-conscious consumer, one of the few distilleries where wind-turbine power, recycled cork, and recirculated production water are an integral part of the process.

History & Background

Copenhagen Distillery is a Danish distillery producing a broad range of spirit styles, including gin, aquavit, liqueur and whisky, built on an experimental and innovative approach to flavour and presentation. Whisky makes up a smaller part of production compared with the house's gin, but draws on the same philosophy of challenging classic norms for how Danish spirits can taste.

Production & Style

The whisky is distilled in small batches with a focus on local identity and experimental cask maturation.

Signature Style

Fresh, Fruity, Round
The whisky offers a fresh, fruity character with a round finish.
