Phenomenal Sherry bomb. Might be better than Taketsuru 21 (but not Hibiki 21). Some have speculated this is Nikka based on tasting note similarities to this and the Taketsuru like dark chocolate, Ginger, oranges, raisins, nuts, berries, etc. Some on whiskybase have speculated this is Nikka malt blended with Kawasaki grain. Some have speculated this is from a sake distillery which leaves Eigashima, Saburomaru, and Hanyu in play. Wherever it came from what truly matters is how good it is.
