Tasting Notes
Adapted from Kanosuke's notes for this specific release:
- Nose: Dried apricot and stewed plum, with custard, caramelised pastry and cinnamon.
- Palate: Ripe pear, apple and white peach mingle with raisins, ginger and a creamy burnt-sugar character.
- Finish: Salted caramel fades slowly into a mature-wood impression.
Shochu Heritage Across Two Distilleries
Released on 25 September 2025, this edition applies re-charred former shochu casks to both malt and pot still components. A key malt first matured in sherry wood before finishing in re-charred shochu casks; rum-cask pot still whisky adds another layer. Here, “shochu” refers to the casks' previous use, not to shochu being added to the whisky.

Since we ship alcoholic beverages, all sales are generally final. We don't accept returns or exchanges just for a change of mind.But if things go wrong—like your bottle breaks in transit or we accidentally send you the wrong one—we've absolutely got your back! Here is how we handle it:
The 7-Day Window
If your item is damaged or incorrect, please reach out to us within 7 days of signing for your package. After 7 days, we unfortunately won't be able to process a return or exchange.

If we sent you the wrong item by mistake, please make sure it stays unopened and in its original condition. (If your item arrived broken, just safely take some clear photos for us instead!)
Refused or Undeliverable Packages
Any packages that are refused by the customer upon delivery, or returned to sender due to an incorrect/incomplete address provided by the customer, are subject to a return shipping and restocking fee. This fee will be deducted from your refund.
In addition, original shipping costs are strictly non-refundable for refused packages. If a package is abandoned or destroyed by the carrier due to a customer's refusal to pay local customs duties, no refund will be issued.
