Description

Forged in the warm, subtropical climate of southern Japan, the Black Dragon of Tsunuki (Kagoshima) Distillery is surrounded by lush forests and ocean. This small batch whisky develops a complex character, playing with depth, like the shadow of a dragon in the mist. Its full-bodied and complex character is emphasized by maturation in Sherry, Bourbon Hogsheads, Port, and Red Wine Casks from the Mars Yamanashi winery. This limited edition is non-chill filtered, preserving all natural oils and aromas, and bottled at 50% ABV. The elegant black label with the white dragon relief symbolizes the power and depth of this special expression.

Finish
Long and lingering, with a warm, sweet aftertaste, persistent fruity and malty notes, brown butter, oak spice, leather, and smoke.
