Stauning Floor Malted Rye Whisky Review
Distilled on the West Coast of Denmark, this bottle delivers a superb reimagining of rye whiskey. Made from malted rye and barley, its profile mimics the caraway seeds that typify traditional rye bread and Nordic cuisine in general. Yet the aromatic profile arrives with bolder, fuller character than traditional rye whiskey — a phenomenon that continues on the palate. That combination, and the spirit's depth and complexity ensure this release will win over not just rye drinkers, but all whisky aficionados.
