Stauning is a Danish distillery renowned for its craft whiskies, which are deeply rooted in traditional methods while incorporating the distinct characteristics of the local environment. Established in 2005 by a group of nine friends in the small village of Stauning on Denmark's west coast, the distillery has gained international acclaim for its innovative and high-quality whiskies.

Stauning produces a range of whiskies, including single malts and rye whiskies. What sets Stauning apart is its commitment to traditional production techniques, such as floor malting its barley and rye and using direct-fired pot stills, which is rare in modern whisky-making. This hands-on approach, combined with the use of locally sourced grains and water, gives Stauning whiskies a unique flavor profile.

One of Stauning's notable expressions is its Stauning Rye, which showcases the distillery's dedication to creating a whisky that is both robust and complex, with rich flavors of spice, fruit, and a touch of smoke. The distillery also offers other innovative whiskies, like Stauning Peat, which combines the earthy qualities of peated malt with the smoothness of Danish grain.

Stauning's attention to detail, from the grain to the glass, has made it a significant player in the global whisky scene, representing a new wave of Scandinavian whisky craftsmanship.
