Tasting Notes
"Ohishi's Tokubetsu Reserve takes all the flavors of its Sherry Cask and magnifies them. Everything is richer and rounder in this one, with notes of marzipan, almonds, butterscotch, and toffee. The lightness of the spirit showcases the contribution of the sherry casks, which particularly in the 27 year-old component of the blend have had plenty of time to work their magic."
