Hombo Iwai

Description

Region: Kyushu, Japan

Flavour: Nose:Deep copper penny colour. Hints of spiced pear, then sweeter, richer Bourbonesque aromas of caramel, vanilla and clove.

Palate: Bourbon character comes through on the palate too - quite delicate on entry, building with grilled corn and orange zest rounded off with a lovely burst of baking spices and minty freshness which suggest some rye input here

Finish: Overall lighter than most Kentucky styles, but a very convincing homage
