Thy Distillery Installs MaxiCaskRack from Thistle Systems

Thy Distillery has become the second Danish distillery to take advantage of the increased capacity and operational benefits Thistle Systems can deliver with its MaxiCaskRack.

The distillery is one of the few Danish distilleries that take a full grain to glass approach and one of the first organic single estate distilleries in the world.

The MaxiCaskRack solution has been designed to maximise capacity in the available space with Thistle Systems’ unique approach.

MAX FACTS

  • 903 casks stored
  • Bespoke design to maximise apex of the building
  • Combination of Hogsheads & American Standard Barrels
  • 5 day installation

Working with an unusual design of the warehouse which is permanently open to the elements on one side, Thistle developed a bespoke design which sees the racking step in at the top levels to utilise the height in the eaves fully.

Thistle also enabled Thy distillery to achieve a stunning look within its warehouse by having the beams and components custom painted to reflect its brand.

About The Distillery

Thy Whisky Distillery is located in part of the family estate in Gyrup, neighbouring the dunes and plantations of the National Park and the windy Northsea coastline.

While the whisky production was founded in 2010, Gyrup is a place of tradition with a history going back to at least the year 1335. Along with the whisky distillery and craft malthouse it is still a thriving organic dairy farm, farming 450 hectars of land.

The whisky is aged in bourbon, sherry and new oak casks. Aiming for quality, not conformity, the distillery bottle its whiskies as limited editions only.
