Description
The Stauning KAOS Triple Malt Danish Whisky DIY Edition Batch 2 – 2023 46% Vol. 0.7 l is a Danish whisky with a strong character from the renowned Stauning Distillery, which is based on the rugged west coast of Denmark and is known for its uncompromising approach to craft whisky. This special bottling combines several of the distillery’s whisky styles to create a multi-layered triple malt whisky, blending single malt whisky, malted rye whisky and heather and peat-smoked single malt. The result is an exceptional Danish whisky that harmoniously combines fruity, spicy and slightly smoky flavours. The name KAOS goes back to the famous motto “Stauning eller Kaos” by Danish Minister of State Thorvald Stauning (1873-1943), who is considered one of the founders of the modern Danish welfare state. This historical reference emphasises the character of the bottling, in which apparent chaos is transformed into a harmonious composition.
Stauning KAOS Triple Malt Danish Whisky is made from 100% locally grown barley and rye, which is traditionally malted in the distillery itself on malting floors. This is followed by double distillation in 24 small, direct-fired copper pot stills, resulting in a particularly aromatic and complex whisky. Maturation takes place in a combination of heavily burnt virgin American oak casks as well as first-fill Maker’s Mark bourbon casks and other fortified wine and brandy casks, which gives the whisky additional depth and structure. This DIY Edition Batch 2 from 2023 is bottled at 46% vol. and is not chill-filtered, which fully preserves its natural texture and flavour density.

Stauning KAOS Triple Malt Danish Whisky is ideal for pure enjoyment, as its complex structure and harmonious balance of fruit, spice and smoke can unfold particularly well.

It is also an excellent accompaniment to dark chocolate, caramelised desserts or spice cake, which brings out the multi-layered aromas of this special Stauning Danish whisky in a particularly impressive way.
