Tasting note
Sakurao Single Malt is made at the Sakurao distillery in Hatsukaichi, which sits between the Seto Inland Sea and the Chugoku Mountains. Warm sea air and cold mountain wind keep a wide temperature swing in the warehouse all year, which the distillery says speeds up maturation.
This single malt spends more than three years in four types of cask: bourbon, new American oak and sherry casks, followed by several months in Mizunara. It is bottled at 43% without added colour or chill filtration.
Tasting. Dark amber. Raisin, orange and peach on the nose; sweet vanilla with gentle bitterness and sourness on the palate; a long, deep, sweet finish with smoke and barrel character. Try it neat, then with a splash of water. More from Japan in our Japanese whisky collection.
