Kanosuke - Japaense Single Malt

KANOSUKE

Japanese Single Malt Whisky (actually distilled in Japan)

From the Brand: This single malt whisky marks Kanosuke’s first consistent release in the 6 years since their opening in 2018. Like the “Limited Editions” before it, this single malt is made using all three of the distillery’s Miyagi copper pot stills. It is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon, sherry, and re-charred virgin oak barrels which previously contained “Mellowed Kozuru”, a rice shochu made by Komasa Jyozo. The Kanosuke Single Malt Whisky is as much a reflection of Kagoshima’s craftspeople as it is its beautiful coastal landscape. Delicate aromatics of banana, lemon cake, and Japanese confectionery are all present before the first sip. The palate has a subtle richness that unfolds beautifully to flavors of candied quince, ginger spice, and camp smoke, with a gentle finish full of salty sea air.

No age statement, but aged 3 to 5 years.
