The first edition of Kaiyo Peated, very limited. Pure malt whisky from Japan, aged in Mizunara cask, extra matured at sea and then an additional two years in a Madeira cask to balance the peat. Made from 100% Malted Barley, non-chill filtered.
Tasting notes
Golden amber
Lots of pear, apples, fruits and vanilla. The peating is there, but not overwhelming. Excellent balance with some oakiness
Opens up with spicy vanilla oak but quickly pivots to oranges and pear. Smooth and delicate, though with a kick of extra heat towards the end
Long, well rounded and dry.
