Thornæs Distillery: Crossroads of Danish Whisky Innovation

🎙️ Welcome to the Whisky.dk Podcast!

In this ai episode, we take you to North Zealand, Denmark, where we visit Thornæs Distillery – one of the country’s most exciting new whisky producers. Here, everything revolves around organics, local ingredients, and traditional craftsmanship, driven by founder Thomas Thornæs’ vision of creating a Danish whisky that is both sustainable and full of character.

We dive into the distillery’s philosophy: using 100% organic barley, small-batch production, and an innovative approach to cask maturation that gives their whisky a unique soul. You’ll get a rare insight into how terroir, craftsmanship, and curiosity all come together in the glass.

And there’s exciting news! Thornæs is launching their brand-new Crossroads series, now bottled in 70 cl with an updated design that celebrates local landmarks and highlights the storytelling at the heart of the distillery.

Within the series, you’ll find:
 🥃 Balkan Peat – Double Cask: a bold, peated whisky that combines intense smoke with a layered cask maturation for depth and complexity.
🥃 Chestnut – Double Cask: a distinctive whisky matured in both traditional oak and chestnut casks, adding spicy warmth, subtle sweetness, and a truly unique character.

So tune in as we taste, discuss, and share the story of a distillery that has already made a strong mark on the Danish whisky scene.
