Tasting notes

Taste

In the Miyagikyo Rum Cask, malted barley and sugar cane notes are present from the beginning until the end. The Finish is long and pleasant. The Yoichi Rum Cask shows a more exotic character than usual, highly aromatic, peaty with herbal and spicy notes.

About the Yoichi Distillery


Founded in 1934 by Masataka Taketsuru, a Japanese businessman who travelled to Scotland to study Chemistry and had the opportunity to learn the art of Master blending, becoming the first Japanese to produce whisky at the time.

The Yoichi distillery produces rich, peaty and bold malts. Getting its distinct aroma and body directly from heating distillation, in which the pot stills are heated with fine powdered natural coal according to traditional methods.

The Miyagikyo is the second distillery after the Yoichi, intended to deliver a different style of whisky. Single Malts are produced in eight pot stills and Grain whiskies are produced in two Coffey Stills. Miyagikyo whiskies are known for their floral and fruity flavour profile.
