Stauning Heart Cut #01 Danish Whisky 52% ABV Limited Edition

Experience the essence of Denmark’s rugged coastline with Stauning Distillery’s Heart Cut #01 Danish Single Malt Whisky. This exceptionally rare release—limited to only 371 bottles worldwide—represents the pinnacle of small-batch Danish craftsmanship. Distilled in 2017 and patiently matured until its 2022 bottling, this bold 52% ABV expression delivers a beautifully balanced intensity perfect for both whisky connoisseurs and adventurous newcomers seeking unique premium spirits.

True to Stauning’s pioneering methods, Heart Cut #01 captures the wild spirit of Jutland through its signature heather-smoked character. Each year, locally foraged heather is used in a dedicated batch, infusing this single malt with a distinctive perfumed smokiness that harmonizes elegantly with underlying sweet notes.

The magic unfolds across two exceptional casks: initial maturation in ex-bourbon wood builds a rich foundation, followed by a transformative seven-month finish in precious Madeira wine casks. This double-cask aging imparts unparalleled depth—think caramelized sweetness, roasted nuts, and whispers of raisin—layered over evocative hints of beach bonfires and sweet BBQ sauce leading to an indulgent sticky toffee pudding finish.

More than just whisky; it’s an artisanal journey bottled. Discover why this limited-edition Heart Cut stands apart as a testament to terroir-driven Danish distilling excellence.
