Kaiyo Japanese Mizunara Oak Whisky 750 ml

Description:

Kaiyo Whisky is very intriguing indeed, starting out as a teaspoon malt (with the bulk of the malt whisky coming from one distillery, along with a drop of malt whisky from another distillery, meaning it can't be called a single malt). It's matured in Mizunara oak - Mizunara can impart a wonderful array of flavours to the whisky, though it is notoriously difficult for coopers to work with. Not only that, it spends a portion of its maturation at sea, helping to evolve its flavour profile further.

Nose: Orange peel, jasmine, a hint of coastal air, soft cedar.

Palate: Coffee bean, green apple, black tea and alpine herbs.

Finish: Cinnamon rolls and mango.
