FIRST MATURATION 3 YEARS IN JAPANESE MIZUNARA OAK BARRELS

Kaiyo whisky benefits from final maturation in the finest Japanese Mizunara oak casks. These casks are handmade due to Mizunara oak’s delicate wood grain. They are among the rarest casks in the world and are considered the finest in which to mature whisky. After years of aging our casks go on a final maturation sea voyage for up to 3 months, leaving from Osaka, Japan.

What makes mizunara oak distinct from European oak and American oak? For one, it enjoys a unique sweet and spicy flavor profile which can be attributed to the oak lactone ratio and high level of vanillin. Aromas evoked from the mizunara oak are incense, sandalwood, vanilla and coconut. Research studies have shown that mizunara matured whisky contain more lactones (parts per million) than whiskies matured in either European oak or American oak. 46% ABV 56% ABV FINAL MATURATION 2-5 YEARS IN 1ST FILL AMERICAN KENTUCKY OR TENNESSEE BOURBON BARRELS SECOND MATURATION 3 MONTHS AT SEA IN JAPANESE MIZUNARA OAK BARRELS
