Description
This sophisticated and rare single malt represents Billy’s present, where he is avidly implementing an incredibly innovative cask management policy. Mizunara is a very scarce and expensive species of Japanese oak seldom used for whisky maturation. It’s a tricky oak to cooper due to its inclination to leak as well as its tendency to twist as it grows, posing a challenge for stave production. This means the trees must grow to be around 200 years old before being felled; twice the age of most oaks used for casks. After a complex two-step maturation journey in Sherry and Mizunara casks, the subsequent liquid is abundant with toasted nuts, stem ginger, grilled banana and coconut shavings.
Aromas of bursting with dark chocolate, heather honey and grilled almonds, with hints of sandalwood, ginger, orange zest, caramelised pecans and coconut shavings. The flavour profile comes in waves of heather honey, cinnamon and crystalised ginger, followed by demerara sugar, dried dark berries, hazelnuts and fig syrup.
