Located in the valley of Miyagi, a region in the North of Japan’s Honshu island recognized for the purity of its air and the quality of its spring water, the Miyagikyo distillery produces a refined malt with signature fresh fruit and floral aromas. This single malt bottling is the purest expression of the distillery’s delicate character, with an emphasis on ex-sherry cask maturation to bring depth to this whisky’s natural charm.
Colour: |
deep gold |
Nose: |
Full-flavoured, rich. Initially concentrated iris notes hint at the extreme intensity of the nose. It then develops aromas of malted barley, exotic fruit (banana), liquorice and camphor. Notes of burnt wood and ash progressively settle over the aromatic palette. Long after, white flowers and beeswax make an appearance. |
Taste: |
Firm, lively. Malted barley is at the heart of the palate, coated in herbaceous, liquorice, spiced (ginger, cinnamon) and chocolate tones. Very elegant, the mid-palate also delivers plenty of energy and as it draws to a close, fresh tobacco leaves and coconut intertwine to create a natural symphony of aromas. |
Finish: |
Long, soft. It evokes the scent of wilted roses. Fine tannins balance its tangy character (lemon, grapefruit). It lingers on notes of tobacco, spices (cardamom, ginger), toasted nuts and stewed fruits (apple, damson). The final nose reveals exotic notes (lychee). |
