Collaboration: Gedulgt x Thy

Collaboration: Gedulgt x Thy

Our first collaborative bottling. Created together with the award-winning cocktail bar Gedulgt in Aarhus, this bottle holds a special place in the line-up of Thy Whisky.

The collaboration with Gedulgt allowed us to think of the bottling as more than a single cask. From the choice of cask to the expression of the bottle itself, it has been created as a shared story about flavour and the hidden. The design takes its inspiration from braille and from Gedulgt’s name, which means “secret, hidden or concealed”.

Inside the bottle is a beech-smoked single malt from the third production on our new stills in 2019. It has matured for almost seven years in a single oloroso sherry cask, offering an early glimpse into the interplay between sherry cask maturation and beech smoke that would later be recognised as Europe’s best. Back then, both the stills and the expression were still new. Today, the bottle stands as a look back at the beginning of a style where dark fruit, richness and spice meet the gentle, lingering beech smoke.

Thy Whisky Festival

Thy Whisky Festival is built on a collaborative approach. We do not see it as our festival, but as the industry’s. We talk to each other and build closer connections, all to the benefit of the whisky drinker.

That is why it feels natural for this bottling with Gedulgt to be released at the festival, and for it to take its starting point in their identity. It is their bottling. We are simply playing along.

CERTIFIED ORGANIC

This whisky is made from 100% organic grain grown on our farm, Gyrup. Both the farm and the distillery are certified organic to ensure clean drinking water and good animal welfare.

Award-winning bar meets award-winning whisky

The bottle is our first collaborative bottling and is based on Gedulgt’s own cask. Gedulgt is an award-winning bar in Aarhus and Aalborg, whose name means hidden or kept secret. The bar itself is hidden from street level, but once the door opens, you are met by a palette of sensory impressions.

This duality is reflected in the whisky. The label has been specially designed so that certain information only becomes visible when you hold the bottle tube up close. Likewise, the flavour is layered, and the gentle beech smoke only truly emerges after you have swallowed the whisky. In this way, the hidden rewards curiosity and slowly reveals itself to those who take their time.

Some of that makes this whisky special is ...
