Timber wood bonfires

Cask No. 116.13 - Japan (Yoichi)Price £65.00

This distillery was founded in 1934 by Masataka Taketsuru who studied at Glasgow University. He chose Hokkaido because he thought it reflected the natural conditions of Scotland. The nose is definitely smoky, but without much maritime character. It is smoky bacon crisps, peaches and raisins. With water the smoke is toned down a touch, the Panel found grapes and gingerbread. The mouthfeel and palate are also smoky – oak smoke and timber wood bonfires. Once diluted the velvety orange flavours come through.

A surprisingly good dram – truly worth trying.
