Shinobu Blended Japanese Whisky
In stock
Matured in ex-bourbon and sherry casks before a finishing period in Mizunara oak. That Mizunara finish is the key detail here, bringing a more fragrant, sandalwood-like character to the whisky and giving it a distinctive edge over a more straightforward blended style.

Deep, sun-warmed amber with honey-gold highlights and a subtle mahogany edge.
Nose
Soft roasted nuts, jellied pear, honeysuckle, butter and sweet wood, with a sandalwood whisper from the Mizunara finish.

Silky, slightly oily on the palate, it unfolds vanilla and bright citrus, with baked apple sweetness complemented by a gentle kick of black pepper and clove.
Finish
Long and gentle, the Mizunara finish unfurls a fragrant sandalwood warmth, with lingering vanilla that softly fades.
