Critics' Tasting Notes:

"NOSE: Green Apples of course. Caramel. Wood influence. Ginger. Peach, even a bit jammy. Red berries

TASTE: Creamy. Classic Japanese / Chichibu style. Green Apples again. Nutty. Ginger. Just a little sulphur that does not bother me. Woody. Grassy. Lots of Wood spices. Slightly bitter

FINISH: Long finish. Turns slightly more into bitter Oranges. Very fresh still. Herbs now. Apples of course. A bit metallic . A bit Woody still. Not overly complex but enjoyable finish for sure!!"

WHISKY BASE, 2019

"NOSE: A bit raw at first. Vanilla for sure. Pears and hints of tropical fruits. Almond paste.

TASTE: Very rich and full-bodied. Again a little raw, but I quickly get over that. It is big! Borderline overwhelming. Tons of vanilla and icing sugar. Tropical fruits - primarily in the form of pineapple. Marzipan.

FINISH: Medium long finish. Continues as it started. Not a lot of development."
