This small-batch whisky is a blend of imported malt and some grain, lending it both a rich and round flavor as well as a sharp, bright finish. The soft subterranean water provides the whisky's gentle, velvety texture, allowing this 86 proof whisky to perform very well in cocktails. It displays gentle aromatics of raw honey, old temple incense and dried herbs, with a hint of the sherry barrels that the whisky is finished in. A local favorite in Gyokusendo's hometown Yoro where only 7500L are produced annually.
Food Pairings: Smoked duck, nuts, canapes etc, and also recommended with cheese fondue.
