Shibui Pure Malt 10 Year Old is an award-winning Japanese whisky that marries tradition with innovation. This meticulously crafted blend features malt whiskies matured for at least 10 years in American ex-bourbon barrels and European Oloroso sherry casks. The result is a complex and delightful expression, earning it the title of "Best Asian Whisky in the World" at the 2023 International Wines & Spirits Competition.

Description

  • Expect a harmonious blend that showcases the best of both worlds – American and European influences.
  • The initial taste offers a wave of sweetness, thanks to the honeyed character from the ex-bourbon barrels.
  • Hints of fruit (like apricot and melon) emerge, adding a touch of freshness.
  • A subtle nuttiness (think almond) peeks through, providing complexity.
  • The influence of the Oloroso sherry casks becomes evident with a touch of stone fruits and a hint of marzipan.
  • The underlying malt character ensures a balanced and grounded experience.
  • The finish is clean and crisp, with lingering sweetness from the honey and a gentle reminder of the toasted oak from the bourbon casks.
