Rated 97 by Ultimate Beverage Challenge
This whisky has an elegant nose, with faint whispers of baked apple, buttercream, and dried lemon peel. The palate is more broad, but still as demure with light flavors of lemon curd, freshly-hewn wood, and toasted almond lingering through the long finish.

Winery
Kikukawa Eizan’s “Beauty in the Cherry blossom Garden” The artist, Kikukawa Eizan, portrayed Japanese women of strength and grace in his ukiyo-e masterpiece, which we believe was a great fit for the sakura cask which also possesses an underlying strength of flavor and a sweet aroma.

Country: Japan

All over Japan, farmers and wine producers take the production of alcoholic beverages including plum wine and sake very seriously. It is an industry which dates back well over a thousand years, and is held in high esteem in this far east country, where plum wines and sake often accompany meals and are used for ceremonial purposes. Whilst plum wine is produced in a relatively similar way to grape based wines, sake requires a complex process more akin to the brewing of beer, except using a rice mash instead of other grains. The rising popularity of both of these drinks in the west has seen the drinks industry in Japan increase dramatically over recent years, and both quality and quantity has risen alongside demand, and is expected to rise further.
