Description
Kanosuke Distillery single malt whisky is distilled, matured and bottled in Kyushu, the most southerly of Japan's four main islands. The Komasa family were pioneers in barrel-ageing shochus and bring this expertise in maturation to the production of Kanosuke Distillery's whiskies. This Artist Edition #003 is a Japanese whisky that captures Kagoshima's essence, focusing on the “earth” element. It is a blend of malt whiskies from various casks, including bourbon, re-charred, sherry, and red wine, before being finished in a Kokuto Shochu cask. The label design, created by Yukihito Kanai, reflects the earth theme and pays tribute to Kagoshima's rich terroir. [cite: Scotch Whisky Auctions, 2, 3, 7]
