Alcohol Content: 43%

Experience the extraordinary with Kaiyo Japanese Whisky, a distinguished spirit that has garnered a remarkable 92 points from Whisky Advocate. This whisky stands out for its use of Mizunara oak, a rare and prized wood that imparts unique flavors of spice, incense, and sandalwood. For those seeking an affordable yet exceptional Japanese whisky, Kaiyo offers an unparalleled tasting journey.

Crafted and matured in Japan, Kaiyo whisky undergoes a unique aging process that sets it apart from the rest. The casks embark on a three-month ocean voyage from Osaka to Liverpool, allowing the whisky to develop further complex flavors through the gentle rocking of the waves and the changing climate conditions. The result is a whisky that boasts ground spices, vanilla sponge cake, honey, and brown sugar cubes on the nose, with scents of aromatic woods and incense. On the palate, expect pastry, egg custard, and allspice flavors, followed by a wave of vanilla creaminess and a lengthy finish with fading spices.

Tasting notes reveal a delicate nose with vanilla, ripe dried fruit, and hints of cherry, leading to a long and lingering finish. This whisky is perfect for those who appreciate the nuances of Japanese whisky-making and seek a truly unique drinking experience.
