Nagahama Single Malt Heavily Peated Bourbon Cask n°313

A limited edition reserved for France, Nagahama Single Malt Heavily Peated Bourbon Cask No. 313 is a single cask bottling by Nagahama the smallest craft distillery in Japan.

Opened in 2016 and located in the heart of the Roman Beer brewery set on the shores of Lake Biwa, Nagahama reveals some of its expertise in this whiskey with a very peaty character offering an intense and gourmet profile. Yusuke Yahisa, the Blender of the House, selected the Bourbon cask n°313 for the specific characteristics of its aromatic palette.

On the nose, the peat reminiscent of a campfire expresses itself with intensity and elegance among a farandole of notes both spicy and greedy, including vanilla notes, a touch of dried fruits and the smoky spirit of a toast. On the palate, we find all the aromas of the nose and the powerful peat with also the appearance of soft and subtle notes of salted butter caramel and white chocolate coated in a smooth texture. The finish is marked by spices such as black pepper, and the depth in the mouth of peaty notes.
