7235 – KANOSUKE JAPANESE WHISKY HIOKY POT STILL 51º – 70 Cl.

Characteristics: Kanosuke Japanese Whisky Hioky Pot Still is a premium Japanese single malt produced by the Kanosuke Distillery in Kagoshima. This expression stands out for its distillation in a “Hioky” pot still and an artisanal production approach that seeks to extract more complexity, body and character from the fermented malted barley mash. The distillery uses a combination of recarbonated American oak barrels, which adds sweetness and structure, and the warm climate of Kagoshima favours a more active maturation. Bottled at 51% vol., without chill filtration or added colouring, this whisky offers a robust and expressive profile with greater aromatic intensity than the standard Kanosuke versions. It is an expression valued by Japanese whisky fans looking for a more powerful and deep single malt in character, with a balance between fruits. Its production reflects the distillery’s philosophy of mixing Japanese tradition with pot still techniques influenced by the Scottish school.

Tasting Notes:

• View: Intense golden amber, clean and with good body in the glass, reflecting its greater concentration and maturity.
• Nose: Rich and complex aromas; ripe fruit (pear, apple), molasses, toasted caramel and honey, on a background of warm spices (cinnamon, cloves) and noble wood, with subtle herbal notes.
• Mouth: Powerful and structured entry; flavours of dark caramel, candied fruit, cocoa and toasted walnut, supported by spicy notes and light smoky touches.
