Description
Sakurao Togouchi Sake Cask Finish is a no age statement blended whisky from Sakurao Brewery & Distillery in Hiroshima, bottled at 40% for the European market. The Togouchi range is matured in the railway tunnel cellar in Hiroshima, and the sake cask finish variant makes use of Japanese sake casks, a distinctly local finishing wood with a subtle, delicate character.
The blend rests first in Bourbon barrels before transferring to sake casks for finishing. The sake wood lends a mild rice-grain sweetness, gentle floral notes and a soft texture to the vanilla and cereal base of the blend. The full composition of the whisky is undisclosed, but the sake finish is an honest nod to local Japanese material and gives the expression a quiet distinctiveness within the range.
