The Stanhope: Whiskey Crafted Through Generations

Glasgow-based Artisan Spirits has just launched The Stanhope, a new premium whiskey brand that’s making waves with its first two offerings: The Stanhope Kentucky Straight Bourbon and The Stanhope Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey. Born in Scotland and crafted in Owensboro, Kentucky, these small-batch whiskeys epitomize a fusion of heritage, tradition, and top-tier craftsmanship.

The Stanhope Kentucky Straight Bourbon (700ml, 44.8% ABV) is a rich, layered whiskey with bold notes of maple, honey, and dried fruits. With a mash bill consisting of 70% Corn, 21% Rye, and 9% Malt, this bourbon offers complexity and depth, making it a standout choice for bourbon enthusiasts. Priced at £55, it promises a memorable tasting experience.

Meanwhile, The Stanhope Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey (700ml, 45.2% ABV) is crafted with 95% Rye, delivering a unique flavor profile with peppery notes and a luxurious dry finish. This rye, priced at £58, is perfect for those who appreciate premium rye with a sophisticated edge.

Both whiskies were carefully distilled and aged in American White Oak casks, earning Silver medals at the 2024 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, a testament to their exceptional quality.

The Stanhope’s rich family legacy traces back to 1879 when Peter Holmes, a pioneering carriage builder, returned to Glasgow after learning his craft in the USA. Today, his family’s dedication to quality continues through The Stanhope whiskey brand.

Launching on 21 October 2024, these whiskies will be available at STANHOPEwhiskey.com.
