Ohishi Sakura 87pf Cask Japanese Whisky 750
| Description: | History,. Ohishi Sakura Cask Whisky is a rice-based Whisky made from local specialized varietals, including Gin no Sato, Hino Hikari, Mori no Kuma-san, Yamada Nishiki, and the remarkably difficult to pronounce Gohyakumanishi most of which comes from the family estate. And while all of their Whiskies are aged in either Brandy or Sherry casks, what sets this dram apart is that its finished in Sakura Japanese cherry wood. Japan is famous for their cherry trees and all the wood for the finishing casks is harvested locally. Its also rather unique in that since the sulfur content of the rice is so low and the starches so pure, they do not need copper and therefore use a rare stainless steel pot still. Its a delicious dram and worth a tray for all Whiskey fans. Tasting Notes,. Nose: The aroma is complex and bright with notes of warm wood, turbinado, red fruits, and a hint of jasmine and rose petals. Palate: The palate opens sweet with an earthy fruit notes, followed by anise, autumn spice, and a mixed bouquet of florals and cream. Finish: The palate is medium-length with lingering florals. |
