Enghaven No 2 Rye Whisky 50 cl 45%

Where No 1 Young Rye shows the raw material, No 2 steps deeper into the cask. More oak, more complexity, still rye at its core.

Expert description

Enghaven No 2 Rye Whisky is the second expression in Enghaven's Rye Whisky series — a Danish Rye Whisky bottled at 45%. Aged longer than Young Rye, giving oak and cask complexity room to develop. Rye's spicy character is still clearly present, but now with deeper sweetness and a more nuanced profile. 50 cl.

Frequently asked questions about Enghaven No 2 Rye Whisky

What is the difference between Enghaven No 1 Young Rye and No 2 Rye Whisky?

What does Enghaven No 2 Rye Whisky taste like?

Spicy rye with oak, vanilla, honey and dried fruit. Medium-bodied, balanced and warm with good depth.

Is Enghaven No 2 Rye suitable for beginners?

Yes — 45% is a good strength for all levels. It is not overwhelmingly complex but has enough depth to satisfy experienced whisky drinkers.

Can Enghaven No 2 Rye be used in cocktails?

Yes — the mature, spicy profile works well in a classic Old Fashioned or Manhattan. Rye and oak make a strong base for drinks that need warmth and flavour.

What is Rye Whisky?

Rye Whisky is a whisky made from rye mash. It delivers a characteristic spicy, dry flavour that distinguishes it from the sweeter, fruit-driven Single Malt Whiskies made from malted barley.

Is No 2 a limited edition?

As a product from a craft distillery, each batch is produced in limited quantities — but No 2 is not marketed as a one-off release. Check current stock availability at Whisky.dk.
