Curious whisky fans can look forward to unique bottlings, some of which have been refined in unusual individual casks.

For the design of the labels of their Art Series, the distillery worked together with two Danish artists. One of them is no stranger to Stauning connoisseurs: Tattoo artist Thit. Her illustrations are the trademark of the Stauning Research series. For the Art Series, she has been inspired by nature. Her labels show animals from the Danish west coast, which together symbolise the distilling process - the separation of the distillate into heads, hearts and tails. This sensitive process is also depicted by the artist Martin Askholm, who trained at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. Known for his figurative as well as abstract art, the Copenhagen artist created dynamic and colourful abstractions.

]]> What are four engineers, a teacher, a cook, a butcher, a pilot and a doctor? The founding team of the Danish Stauning distillery! In 2005 the friends decided to put a vision into practice: single malt based on the model of peaty whiskey from the island of Islay. Despite little whiskey experience, it was quickly followed by great praise: “If you continue like this, it could become one of the best smoky whiskeys in the world,” said whiskey legend Jim Murray when he tried the New Make 2006.

The distillers from Ringkøbing Fjord put Danish whiskey on the map and wrote a success story with it. Single malt, malted rye whiskey and Co. from Stauning are based exclusively on high-quality ingredients from the region and a variety of different barrels. Even the standard range of the Danes is therefore very diverse. Stauning brings even more variety into play with single cask bottlings.
