Stauning Kaos Batch 1-2020

Stauning is a Danish whisky distillery located in Skjern right next to the Ringkøbing Fjord, the west coas of Denmark.
They recently rebranded their bottle design and site to better get give you what Stauning is about.
The new bottle design is about the the distillery and the nine friends that started the distillery in 2005.

The nine friends come from different backgrounds (a doctor, a teacher, a chef, a butcher, a pilot and four engineers)
but quickly gained a common curiosity for whisky.
The barley and rye are grown within a few kilometers of the distillery.
Knowing the farmers gives a more profound understanding of the ingredients.
The local community likes contributing to the project. They work together. Growing the crops is craftsmanship as well.
They also do their own floor malting and use the local peat and heather to dry their malted grain.

Stauning KAOS
The name is based in Danish history, when Thorvald Stauning used the phrase “Stauning or Chaos” to win re-election as Prime Minister in 1935.
By vatting their best Rye and smoked single malt whiskies together in a curious triple malt marriage, they give us both Stauning and KAOS.
This is barch 1-2020 and is bottled at 46& abv.
