1. KANOSUKE DOUBLE DISTILLERY
KANOSUKE DOUBLE DISTILLERY is a blended Japanese whisky made using carefully crafted recipes from two distilleries, with both spirits aged at Kanosuke. This unique Japanese whisky, inspired by Irish whiskey, combines the single malt distilled at Kanosuke and the whisky from Hioki, both located in Kagoshima, the southern tip of Japan. This whisky brings out the distinctive characteristics of each distillery, featuring a moderately oaky, rich, fruity aroma with a soft, bitter finish.
