Stauning On The Top 50 List Of The World's Most Admired Whiskies

A remarkable international recognition has come Denmark's way in the world of whisky, with Stauning Whisky as the first Danish whisky, being acknowledged for the first time on the "World’s Most Admired Whisky" top 50 list.

This prestigious list, compiled by whisky experts from around the globe, has positioned Stauning Whisky among the leaders at an impressive 40th place.

This not only underscores Stauning Whisky’s status as a premium whisky but also as a significant player on the global whisky stage.

HONORED BY GLOBAL EXPERTS

Recognized for outstanding quality, consistency and branding

Drinks International magazine, which publishes the list, is renowned for comparing and assessing the world's leading spirits brands. The comparison with the well-known "World's 50 Best Restaurants" list, where Denmark has shone with stars like Alchemist, Noma, and Geranium, highlights the prestigious nature of this international recognition.

Known for their innovation and quality in West Jutland, Stauning Whisky views this as a culmination of their hard work and dedication. "Finding our name among such global giants is both overwhelming and inspiring. It affirms our commitment to producing a quality whisky that resonates on a global level," states co-founder Alex Munch.

NEW WORLD WHISKY

Growing appetite for Danish Whisky

The interest in whiskies from 'new' whisky countries like Denmark is on the rise, and Stauning Whisky fits well into this trend with the direct approach to flavor and quality. With the recently opened office in New York and ongoing efforts to introduce Danish whisky to the world, Stauning is seeing a growing global appetite for these distinctive products.

Stauning Whisky's recent victory at the World Whiskies Awards 2023, where the "Single Cask Rye Maple Syrup Finish" was named the world's best Single Cask (Single) Rye Whisky, only underscores their growing stature on the international scene. Their special floor malting, use of local grain, and distillation over an open flame are praised in the "World’s Most Admired Whisky" list and illustrate the quality and innovation that make Stauning Whisky a name to watch in the whisky world.
