Description

Region: Yoichi, Japan

Award: Gold- 2007 World Whiskies Awards

Nose: Spicy and peppery, but there’s a richness behind it, with spicy oak and soft orange fruitiness, and soft vanilla notes from the bourbon cask.

Palate: Grainy sweetness and candied orange peel, quite rich, accompanied by rich cinnamon and clove.

Finish: Great balance, this really needs a little water to allow the flavours to unfurl.
