A whisky in motion. A tribute to the power of creative disruption.
We’ve worked with the team at St Kilian Distillers for several years now. Their beautiful, award-winning single malt has already played a key role in our core expression, Superblend.
So when our German distributor and long-time friend of the brand, Kristoph Kirsch, suggested we create a blend that placed German whisky at the centre of the flavour, we knew exactly who to call.
St Kilian upholds the highest standards in single malt production, but without letting tradition limit creativity. The result is expressive, flavour-forward whisky—and a huge variety of cask styles to work with. What St Kilian and other German producers are proving is that world-class whisky can come from anywhere, and that innovation still has a role to play in a category that often feels creatively closed.
As blenders, this is exactly what excites us. We tasted a wide range of samples before selecting three from St Kilian’s stock that were wildly different in character, but held the potential for something greater together. A layered, forward-looking flavour. A whisky in motion.
Germany has all the ingredients to become a global whisky powerhouse:
– A deep tradition of distilling
– Brewing infrastructure
– Manufacturing expertise
– A perfect climate for ageing spirits
St Kilian, as Germany’s largest whisky producer, is leading the charge—but in global terms, they’re still small. Why is that?
The truth is, Germany is one of the world’s largest consumers of Scotch whisky—around 17 million bottles per year. German whisky drinkers know quality. And for local producers to be taken seriously, they need to meet or exceed the same high bar. There’s no novelty factor. No free pass.
But things are shifting.
A new generation of whisky drinker is emerging—one less attached to legacy, and more interested in discovery. To them, the idea of great whisky coming from Germany isn’t far-fetched. It’s exciting. They want flavour, not folklore. They want substance, not ceremony. And they’re willing to find it for themselves.
This is the mindset that inspired Fluxus.
Named after the radical art movement that emerged in Germany and New York in the 1960s, Fluxus was all about breaking down hierarchies, dissolving borders between disciplines, and rejecting the growing commoditisation of art. It was playful, rebellious, and deeply collaborative—focused less on rules and more on connection.
That spirit runs through this whisky.
Just as Fluxus refused to respect the lines between genres, this blend ignores the outdated boundaries of whisky tradition. What a whisky tastes like is more important than where it’s from. In Fluxus, we draw on flavour from Germany and Scotland—two distinct voices working in harmony.
Each component is equal. Each contributes something vital. And together, they form something greater than the sum of their parts.
This is Experience N.23 // Fluxus.
A whisky in motion.
A celebration of flavour over form.
