Finding out about Stauning Whisky

stauning danish whisky

Danish Whisky

One of the first distillers in Scandinavia, Stauning is the oldest distillery in Denmark.  Those involved in creating Stauning had no experience or knowledge in whisky production. The nine friends (a doctor, a chef, a butcher, a teacher, a helicopter pilot and four engineers), didn’t have much when they started out in 2005, but they wanted to learn.

Distilled in 24 pot stills, every ingredient in their whiskies is grown/sourced from within 40 miles – the barrels being the exception.
