Single Cask Nation turned me on to Japanese rice whiskies with their Ohishi aged 7 years in a refill sherry hogshead, a sweet and unctuous experience I continued to chase after finishing that bottle. Other Ohishi expressions didn’t do it for me but this Fukano special release is the closest I’ve found to recapturing that special cask. The marriage of a sweet and complex finishing cask with the unsurpassed moutfeel of rice whisky is something ill always want on my shelf.
