Like the flagship Kikori Whisky, this too is made from 100% rice in Kyushu. While that product contains some whisky aged in sherry casks, this is aged for ten years exclusively in a former oloroso sherry butt.

Tasting Notes

"Kikori Ten compares interestingly with their original release, rounding out the edges and smoothing out some of the cereal notes. This bottling is soft and honeyed, with a gentle nuttiness, hints of pear, subtle floral notes, and a bit of vanilla on the finish. It's light-bodied and easy to enjoy. That said, its high price is likely less reflective of its inherent quality than it is of its rarity and the rising interest in Japanese whiskey."
