Stauning sits where the Skjern River runs into Ringkøbing Fjord, and the fjord opens further out towards the North Sea - a small fishing town on Denmark's west coast, long before anyone here ever thought about whisky. With the Navy Strength version of their gin, Stauning brings that maritime heritage back into the light, cranked all the way up to 57.3%.

Expert's Description

Stauning Navy Strength Gin is a Danish Navy Strength Gin, distilled at Stauning in Western Jutland and bottled at 57.3%.

The recipe is identical to the award-winning Stauning Danish Dry Gin at 43% - the same juniper, coriander seed, angelica root, orris root, liquorice root and lemon peel, plus pine shoots harvested locally around the distillery. The botanicals steep in alcohol for 24 hours before the whole batch is distilled together in a single heart cut using the one-shot method: only the middle of the run - the heart - makes it into the bottle, while the heads and tails are discarded.

The difference comes down to how much water is added afterwards. At 57.3% there is simply less water and more of the actual distillate in the glass, and it shows: the gin turns more aromatic, the botanicals stand out more clearly, the finish lasts longer, and the texture feels fuller than the 43% version.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Juniper and citrus arrive first, followed by a mild spice and light herbal notes. Behind it sits a faint hint of pine from the West Jutland pine shoots.

Palate

Clean and full-bodied, with juniper and citrus up front. The mild spice and herbal character follow close behind, and a light touch of pine carries the juniper all the way through.

Finish

Soft, round and well balanced - surprisingly easy-going for something bottled at a full 57.3%.

Did You Know?

Navy Strength refers to a strength of 57% or above. Before alcohol content could be measured precisely, sailors would soak gunpowder in the spirit and try to light it - if the gunpowder still caught, the spirit was "proof", above that threshold. The name Navy Strength is said to come from gunpowder staying usable even after an unlucky barrel leak in a ship's hold.

On the tiny island of Årø in the Little Belt, where vineyards meet salt marsh, sits Årø Vingård. The winemakers here paired their grapes with juniper and wild coastal herbs to create a summery gin grown from their own soil.

Expert's description

Årø Vingård Sommergin is a Danish Gin traditionally distilled at the vineyard's own facility and bottled at 42%.

Årø Vingård has made wine on this small island in Haderslev Fjord since 2004. When they set out to find their own gin botanicals, they consulted local nature guides about what actually grows wild on Årø Kalv, a tiny islet just off the main island.

Juniper forms the classic backbone, while liquorice root and coriander seed add warmth and depth. Sea rocket from the salt marshes lends a light peppery lift, and rosehip leaves round the flavour off with a soft floral note.

The result is a soft, summery gin with a clear sense of place, made by people who know this island's nature better than most.

Tasting notes

Nose

The nose offers fresh juniper and a touch of liquorice sweetness, backed by a light, herbal, coastal note.

Palate

The palate is round and soft with mild sweetness, medium bitterness and a hint of peppery warmth from the coriander seed.

Finish

The finish is long and floral, with a last trace of rosehip and fresh herbs.

Nine friends from Jutland founded Stauning Whisky in 2005 on the rugged west coast at Skjern - Denmark's oldest whisky distillery. Two decades later, the distillery has moved into gin for the first time.

Expert's description

Stauning Danish Dry Gin is a Danish gin spiced with locally harvested pine shoots and bottled at 43%.

The gin comes from Stauning Whisky, which since 2005 has distilled whisky from local grain, floor-malted in-house and distilled in 24 small, direct-fired copper pot stills. With Danish Dry Gin, the distillery has for the first time moved beyond whisky and into gin, carrying the same craft traditions with it.

The juniper base is joined by pine shoots harvested in the nature around the distillery, giving the gin a distinctly Nordic, resinous character, while lemon peel and a touch of spice keep it balanced.

Tasting notes

Nose

Fresh pine needle and juniper meet a lightly citrus aroma.

Palate

The palate opens with piney juniper, before the pine shoots add a resinous, lightly spiced layer.

Finish

The finish is dry and forest-like, with a last trace of lemon peel.

Out at Farre, a stretch west of Give, sits a distillery that made its name smoking malt over nettles. Those same nettles are in this gin, tucked under lemon and lime. Three centilitres is enough to work out why they bother.

The expert's description

Sample 3 cl Fary Lochan Citrus Small Batch Danish Gin 40% is a Danish Gin distilled in small batches with juniper, lemon, lime, coriander seeds and nettles and bottled at 40%.

Fary Lochan Destilleri sits in the village of Farre near Give in central Jutland. The place is small, production runs in short batches, and over the years the distillery has built a reputation for doing things its own way rather than copying the Scots. Citrus is the brightest release in their gin range, and according to the shop's own information it builds on the distillery's Classic Gin with extra lemon and lime laid on top.

That addition is what gives the bottle its yellow tint and its leading aroma. Lemon and lime supply the tartness and a clear peel note, while the coriander seeds tie citrus and juniper together. The nettles are the quiet ingredient: they make no fuss, but they lay down a green, faintly bitter floor you will not find in a classic London Dry Gin.

Forty per cent is enough to carry that citrus through both tonic water and ice. The gin is meant for either, neat over ice or in a Gin and Tonic, and the 3 cl bottling exists so you can taste your way forward before choosing a larger bottle.

Tasting notes

Nose

Squeezed lemon peel lands first, sharp and juicy, with lime right behind it. Under the citrus lies a green, almost grassy layer from the nettles, and juniper keeps discreetly to the back.

Palate

Tart and crisp. Lemon and lime fill the front of the mouth, then juniper's dry bitterness reports for duty and pulls everything back down to earth. Coriander adds a warm, faintly soapy spice, and the nettles round it off with something green and herbal.

Finish

Lime peel and a dry bitterness stay behind. Short, clean, with a green trace right at the end.

Listen to our podcast:

At Oremandsgaard Gods the still sits a stone's throw from the fields the botanicals grow in. Batch 045 is the release where mint cools the grapefruit down and hops slide in a bitterness that usually belongs in a beer glass. Here in 3 cl, so you can form an opinion before committing to a full bottle.

The expert's description

Sample 3 cl Radius Batch No. 045 Mint Grapefruit Danish Organic Gin 45.4% is a Danish Organic Gin distilled with juniper, grapefruit, mint, sea buckthorn and hops and bottled at 45.4%.

Radius Distillery works out of Oremandsgaard Gods near Præstø in southern Zealand, and the distillery follows one clear rule: fewer botanicals, better botanicals, and a flavour where each one can still be picked out. Batch 045 is dry and full-bodied, built around grapefruit and hops, then closed off again by mint and sea buckthorn.

The hops are the unusual move. They lay a herbal bitterness underneath the citrus, and together with the grapefruit's own bitter compounds they produce a gin that never turns sweet anywhere along the line. Mint arrives last and acts almost as a cooling agent, the kind of freshness that stays put long after the glass is down. Sea buckthorn adds acidity and a sharp, orange-red fruit note.

The whole production is certified organic. Radius Distillery does not name its gins, it numbers them, and every batch carries its own botanical make-up. 045 is therefore a specific release rather than a permanent fixture on the shelf. This 3 cl sample exists so you can taste your way forward before choosing a full bottle.

Tasting notes

Nose

Grapefruit peel first, sharp and faintly bitter, with juniper sitting dry behind it. Then mint arrives like a cold draught, and underneath it all a resinous trace from the hops.

Palate

Dry and full across the tongue. Grapefruit carries the whole thing with clear bitterness, sea buckthorn cuts in with acidity, and the hops lay down a lightly bitter floor familiar from a dry pilsner. Juniper stays in the background and holds it together.

Finish

Mint takes over at the end and leaves the mouth clean and cool. The bitterness lets go slowly, and what remains is a dry, herbal tone that hangs around.
