Category: RYE

Danish distiller Stauning flaunt their inner demons in this Research Series rye whisky bottling called El Clasico. An outrageous creative experiment gone right, El Clasico is borne of floor malted local water, rye and barley that is double distilled in 24 direct-fired pot stills. There is no chill filtering. It is matured in heavy charred virgin American oak barrels for 24 months and finished in Spanish vermouth casks for 6 months.

Exotic aromatic and palate sensations include oranges, apples, warm baking spices, roasted caramel, citrus, dried fruits and crushed pepper that linger into a long warm finish with bittersweet vermouth notes. 90.6 Proof

Nicholas ★★★★★

The floor malting process really comes through in the aroma — it's like fresh bread and dried fruit. The Spanish vermouth cask finish adds a subtle herbal sweetness that balances the rye spice perfectly. Definitely a creative experiment that paid off.

Samuel R. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about the vermouth cask finish, but it adds a really nice herbal complexity without overpowering the rye spice. The bottle looks great on my shelf, and the flavor keeps me coming back for another sip.

Owen O. ★★★★★

That Spanish vermouth cask finish gives it a sweetness that balances the rye spice perfectly—it's a wild experiment that actually paid off. The 750ml bottle's been empty for two weeks now, and I keep thinking about that smooth, lingering finish.
