Ichiro's Malt Double Distilleries

A bit unbalanced due to the new whisky in the blend. Alcohol comes forward but it balances off quite well with the addition of a little water! Loads of spices, sweet and cake. Long aftertaste but alcohol still bites a bit

I really quite liked their wine finish and it scored a very good 4 rating from me. This one is back down to more solid territory. Its youngish side shows more prominently without the extra finishing to mask the youth of the distillate. Lovely vanilla slight green apple.

Bar Sansa at Akasaka

Nice finish, balance of peat and sweet
