Description

Natural non-chill filtered and bottled at high strength, this rare Oriental single cask showcases the stunning influence of Japanese Mizunara Oak from the foothills of Mount Fuji on triple distilled Irish Single Pot Still whiskey married with Irish Single Malt. It was first aged in American bourbon casks before being finished for nine months in two extremely rare Japanese Mizunara oak barrels.

Nose
Rich and oily with Bramley apple peels, green fruits, honey, and a distinctive pot still base, with hints of vanilla and exotic woods.
Palate
Hugely satisfying mouthfeel of toffee, nut, malt, and baked sugar, with notes of honey, clove, allspice, sandalwood, coconut, and Japanese incense.
Finish
Medium to long, with lingering notes of candy bananas, spices, and a pleasant warmth.
