Kaiyo Japanese Cask Strength Whiskey

Kaiyō, meaning "ocean", is a blended malt whisky distilled in Japan. It is matured in Japanese Mizunara oak barrels crafted by the Ariake cooperage in Kyoto for an undisclosed amount of time. The whisky then begins a sea voyage from Osaka, Japan for up to three months allowing the whisky to ocean-mature. The movement, temperature variation, and air pressure all play a factor in this final step.
