Stauning HØST, meaning "harvest" in Danish, embodies the essence of the Nordic lands and the art of Danish distillation. Inspired by the softness of the last days of the Danish summer, this double malt whisky evokes a feeling of comfort and warmth, reminiscent of the harvest of barley and rye carefully selected in the region. This expression is the result of a harmonious fusion between a single malt and a rye malt, aged in American oak barrels with a subtle touch of Port wood. The result? An elegant and balanced whisky, perfect for enthusiasts seeking an authentic and refined experience. Stauning stands out for its "grain-to-glass" approach, which emphasizes local, sustainable, and artisanal production.
TASTING NOTES :
NOSE: From the first whiff, one is greeted by a fruity and floral aromatic bouquet. Notes of green apple, juicy pear, and wildflowers intertwine with a subtle touch of vanilla and caramel brought by the oak. A light hint of malted cereals recalls the agricultural and artisanal origin of the product.
PALATE: On the palate, HØST reveals a soft and silky texture, with flavors of stone fruits like peach and apricot, followed by gentle rye spices and a hint of honey. The Port casks add a subtle note of dried red fruits, balancing the whisky's sweetness.
FINISH: The finish is delicate yet persistent, marked by notes of toasted oak, a hint of dark chocolate, and a slightly peppery sensation. It ends on a comforting note of salted butter caramel, leaving a warm and convivial memory.
