Tasting Notes
Amahagan World Malt Edition No. 5 - Sherry Wood Finish is a delightful blend of Japanese and foreign whiskies crafted by the small and youthful Nagahama distillery. This intriguing spirit tantalizes the senses with its rich aroma of orange, apple, muscovado sugar, toffee, and a hint of leather. Upon the first sip, the palate is greeted with a delightful fusion of dried fruits, including raisins and orange peel, complemented by the sweetness of honey, marmalade, and toffee. As the whisky lingers on the tongue, a sweet and lingering toffee note emerges, subtly accented by a delicate spiciness. This exceptional blend, bottled at 47% ABV without chill-filtering or added coloring, is a testament to the artistry of Nagahama's distillers, showcasing the remarkable depth and complexity that can be achieved through the sherry cask finishing process.
