Ichiro's Malt MWR Mizunara Wood Reserve
Japanese Blended Malt Whisky
The return of a legendary whisky from Ichiro Akuto, formerly of Hanyu distillery and now founder and distiller at Chichibu. This is a blend of malt whiskies from his extensive stocks, including whisky matured in mizunara – fragrant Japanese oak. Outstandingly rare, with only very limited amounts available to the whisky industry to use to make casks, mizunara is uniquely fragrant and adds a refined and almost incense-like air to this whisky.
CASK TYPE Mizunara
CHILL FILTERED No
Nose: Cigar box, and exotic wood notes. Hints of wet leaves and earthy notes. Fruit drops with icing sugar.
Taste: Medium to rich in body. Lots of pepper to the taste. A tad astringent, but at the same time a mellow sweetness. Weird, I know. But that's what I get.
Finish: Medium to short finish. Actually a bit oaky now.
