Thornæs Danish Whisky, Single Malt - 1st Release

As the name suggests, 1st Release is our very first release of Thornæs Single Malt Whisky. It is - in other words - a small piece of Thornæs history, carefully selected from our stock of maturing whiskies.

1st Release is a Double Cask that has spent its first 13 months in new Danish oak and then up to 25 months in a Bourbon cask of white American oak.

The maturation in the Danish oak took place in small 50 liter casks, which created the foundation of the whiskey and gave it both lots of toffee and warm spices, but also good complexity with notes of pepper and mild tobacco. Subsequently, the large 250 liter hogshead Bourbon cask has ensured the whiskey additional mild notes of vanilla and caramel as well as a more rounded and harmonious profile.

All bottles are numbered. Hardboard box with window and magnetic closure included.

• Malt: Danish organic barley malt
• Alk./vol.: 50.9%
• Number: 314 pcs.
• Volume: 50 cl.

1st Release is part of our Uncharted Series

This whiskey is part of our Uncharted Series, reflecting our very first considerations around cask selection and distillation technique. Each publication follows in the footsteps of these choices and reveals how ideas are shaped and become concrete products with their very own distinctive character.
