- Description
- Ki One's peated Korean single malt fuses Eastern and Western whisky traditions through its barbecue-sauce smokiness and honeyed richness. At 46%, the spirit balances savory umami notes—seaweed, soy sauce—with sweeter elements like vanilla cream and crème brûlée, underpinned by gentle coastal smoke. The combination suggests careful peat management rather than the aggressive char of heavily peated Scotch, creating a more approachable profile. A sophisticated bridge between Islay convention and Korean distilling innovation.
