Kaiyo Japanese Whisky

92 Points, Whisky Advocate: “Mizunara oak is the modern signature of Japanese whisky, and Kaiyo- whisky enables inquisitive imbibers to savour the spice, incense, and sandalwood flavours of this rare wood for an attractive price.

Distilled and matured in Japan, the casks then undergo a three-month ocean voyage from Osaka to Liverpool before bottling to encourage further flavoursome interactions.

Ground spices, vanilla sponge cake, honey, brown sugar cubes, and scents of aromatic woods and incense.

Pastry, egg custard, and allspice flavors, followed by a wave of vanilla creaminess and a lengthy finish with fading spices.
