Whisky description :

A Japanese malt whisky inspired by the iconic cherry blossoms of Japan. Using bourbon cask-aged malt as the base, it is blended with malt whiskies matured in sakura (cherry wood), cherry brandy, sherry, and wine casks.

Enjoy its delicate pink hue and sweet, floral aroma reminiscent of sakura. On the nose, cherry blossoms and ripe apricot shine through, leading to a smooth palate of honeyed peach and soft spice. The finish is gently warm with a lingering, elegant sweetness.
