- Description
- Sakurao distillery's first Japanese single malt combines ex-bourbon and ex-sherry cask maturation to craft a layered, fruit-forward spirit. Vanilla and orange marmalade dominate the nose alongside crisp green apple, while the palate builds with dried fruit, brown sugar, hazelnut, and warming spice. A versatile dram that bridges traditional single malt character with Japanese refinement.
