Blended Malt Whisky
ABV: 53% Cask Strength
A fascinating whisky release from the Kaiyo Japanese Whisky company. This dram has been “teaspooned” – a practice quite common in Scotch whisky – where a small amount of another malt whisky is added to a single malt. This means it is technically a blended malt whisky, but with the flavour profile of a single malt. The spirit has also been matured in Japanese Mizunara oak – the most expensive cask variety in the world, and one of the most difficult to manage.
Mizunara literally translates as “water oak”, partly due to its notorious leakiness as a cask. Mizunara grows slowly, and only reaches maturity at around 200 years old, making it one of the scarcest oak varieties for coopers to work with.
Unlike European and American oak trees, Mizunara grows in a changeable, crooked and curvy fashion, meaning that straight planks for barrels are hard to come by.
Nevertheless, the oak is still valued highly by distillers, due to the unique fragrant flavours it imparts to whisky. Kaiyo’s spirit showcases the wood’s qualities to full effect. Partial maturation by the sea gives Kaiyo’s whiskies a subtle brininess.
