Shizuoka Pot Still W 100% Imported Barley 1st Edition

Born from a distiller’s inspiration at Islay’s Kilchoman, Shizuoka Pot Still W represents the pioneering spirit of Japanese whisky-making. Distilled in 2017, this inaugural edition utilizes 100% imported barley, with 70% receiving a peating, lending a subtle smokiness to its character. Matured in a harmonious blend of Bourbon and new Virgin Oak casks, the whisky delivers a complex profile of sweet vanilla notes interwoven with spice and oak influence. Bottled in 2022 at 55.5% ABV, this expression from Shizuoka Distillery offers a unique glimpse into a rising star of the whisky world.
