PROVENANCE
Crafted by the master blender
Shinji Fukuyo, Suntory’s Chief Blender, led this limited release alongside his staff team. Their collective expertise ensures every component is selected with intent, creating a harmony that reflects the brand’s high standards. The process is one of rigorous selection, where only the most compatible malts and grains are chosen to form the final composition.
MATURATION
Influenced by diverse cask woods
The spirit matures in an array of vessels, including American white oak, sherry casks, and Mizunara oak. Each wood imparts distinct characteristics, contributing to the depth and texture of the final product. This variety in aging environments allows the whisky to develop a layered profile that is both robust and refined.
PALATE
Rich notes of fruit and spice
Upon tasting, the whisky reveals a complex arrangement of flavours. Dried fruits provide a sweet foundation, while honey adds viscosity and warmth. Underlying these are subtle hints of spice, creating a balanced finish that lingers gently. The overall impression is one of richness without heaviness, ideal for slow sipping.
