Copenhagen Distillery Whisky RARE No.4 is Limited to 1,000 Bottles

Copenhagen Distillery Whisky RARE No.4 has been developed by the distillery as a limited-edition spirit created with experimentation in mind to work well for curious drinkers alike.

The spirit makes use of the spelt ancient grain and boasts a complex aromatic profile that includes notes of sweet cereal, dried papaya and green jasmine tea. The expression then features rock candy, oxidized papaya and umami undertone on the palate to give it a soft, subtle profile. Copenhagen Distillery Whisky RARE No.4 is limited to just 1,000 bottles that will be available around the world including in eight European countries.

Master Distiller Lasse Öznek spoke on the spirit saying, "We’re very excited to launch our newest iteration of RARE. This range gives us the freedom to explore flavours and ingredients rarely seen in traditional whiskies. It’s a space for creative experimentation, where we embrace the versatility of spirits and rediscover forgotten grains such as Spelt, elevating them through our innovative, modern approach. With this collection, we have crafted whiskies with a forward-thinking, scientific perspective to bring something truly original to our global audience."
