This is a really interesting idea for a Japanese blend. Spirits blended from the Japanese distillery Shinshu and from undisclosed Scottish distilleries.
Nose: Saccharine sweet, cherries. Has a strange artificial smell.
Palate: Chocolate Hob-Nob biscuits, oak and a hint of vanilla.
Finish: Dark fruit and more chocolate biscuits.
Overall, initially I wasn’t sure about this whisky, but it very quickly grew on me. It’s an easy to drink and very interesting dram. I was challenged in a blind tasting to work out where it was from and this completely stumped me! The combination of Scottish and Japanese styles go surprisingly well together.
