Nagahama Cask #137 Sake Cask Single Malt Whisky | 500ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Incredibly round, with some sweet vanilla and flowery notes brought by the bourbon cask, balanced out by more refreshing and herbal notes reminiscent of lemongrass and rice.

Palate: Full expression of the sake cask, with some dryness and sharpness balanced out by an underlying sweetness.

Finish: There is a lingering fruitiness, with fruits such as muskat raisins and pear, balanced out by the delicate spiciness and sweetness of vanilla and white flowers.

Distillery Information

The Nagahama distillery started its business in 1996 as a craft beer brewery with a restaurant in a renovated building of a rice warehouse. Later, after training in Scotland, we added a whisky distillery in 2016 and began producing whisky, which we continue to do today.
