The Togouchi Japanese Blended Whisky Sake Cask Finish is a unique expression crafted by Chugoku Jozo, now known as Sakurao Brewery & Distillery. This exceptional blend of malt and grain whiskies from Scotland and Canada undergoes an intricate aging process. Initially matured in imported bourbon barrels within an old railway tunnel, the whisky is then expertly blended by a Chef Blender before receiving a final flourish in sake casks from the Sakurao brewery for a further three months. This meticulous process imparts a delicate essence of traditional Japanese sake, making it the only Japanese whisky to be finished in sake casks. Upon nosing, the whisky exudes a bouquet filled with tropical fruit, sweet grapes, and candied lemon peel. On the palate, it reveals a delightful harmony of brown sugar, caramelized pineapple, mushrooms, and tart apples that linger beautifully. The finishing notes embrace a short yet sweet character with nuances of cinnamon and vanilla, showcasing the distillery's unparalleled expertise in blending and distillation.
