Nose
Notes of exotic fruits with grilled pineapple or ripe banana. Iodized, almost saline fragrances combine perfectly with the sweetness of mango. Hints of citrus and delicate white flowers add complexity. Fresh cherry blossoms, and a maritime-salty breeze.
Palate
A frank start with juicy fruit, which makes us appreciate the tropical ageing of this whisky like a rum. Sweet vanilla malt notes and rich caramelized fruit round out the structure. The saline, finely peated profile offers remarkable persistence on the palate. Hints of honey, dark chocolate, and fine smoke.
Finish
A long-lasting, warm-hearted finish that beautifully recalls the complexity of this whisky. A velvety, finely woody, perfectly balanced finish transports us to the mystical, mist-filled forests of Yakushima. Persistent and balanced with a subtle spiciness and fine wood tones.
