JVS WINES IMPORT, INC.® Ohishi 10 Year Ex-Brandy Single Cask Whisky (Japan) [WA 91] – 6045598417055

Distillery Notes:
By using brandy casks for maturation, the elegance of Ohishi’s distillate is allowed to shine as it interplays with French oak and residual brandy. This whisky carries a floral aroma with high-toned orchard fruits like pear and green apple while still retaining its delicate rice character.

Proof: 87.4

91 Points – Whisky Advocate

“Fully matured in cognac casks for 10 to 13 years, the nose initially has vanilla sugar, dried banana, lemon and lime hard candies, then pineapple chunks, lemon zest, pink peppercorns, and hints of pine floor polish. In contrast, the scrumptious palate is like a plate of homemade cookies, with praline, milk chocolate, dark fruits, caramel sauce, vanilla custard, and chocolate brownies, ending with a dry finish of lightly spiced cookie dough.”
