Shinobu Kihei is a Japanese single malt from Shinobu Distillery in Niigata Prefecture, made by second-generation distiller Usami Tatsuya. It is produced entirely from malted barley and bottled at 46% ABV in a 70cl bottle. The whisky is matured in a combination of Bourbon, Sherry and Hogshead casks. The nose is vanilla and peach with dark chocolate, cacao, mango and a delicate smokiness. The palate develops sweet fruit and malt with vanilla, gentle spice, seasoned oak and light smoke. The finish is long and warming, with malt sweetness, fruit and gently smoky oak.

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.
