Hakata 16 Year Old Sherry Cask is a Japanese single malt aged for a minimum of 16 years in sherry casks at the Hikari Distillery in Fukuoka, which was founded in 1912. It is bottled at 42% ABV in a 70cl bottle. The whisky is made from 100% barley with partial koji fermentation, and it is matured in traditional and open-air warehouses. On the nose the sherry is muted, with brown butter, toasted cereal and sharp orange oil and peel. The palate is sweet, with sugary tea, fruit, chocolate and spice. The finish is thick with leathery, austere sherry.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
