Tasting note
A blend built for the highball rather than for slow sipping. Four malt whiskies and one grain whisky go into it, and the result is light and floral rather than heavy: orange blossom on the nose, then oak, caramel and fresh orchard fruit across the palate, with a short clean finish.
Build the highball in a tall glass filled to the top with ice. One part whisky, three parts chilled soda water, stir once and no more. A lemon peel is optional and a wedge of lime is not needed. The lightness that makes this easy neat is exactly what keeps it upright under soda.
The 500ml bottle is worth noting if you are buying to mix rather than to keep. It is 40 per cent, made at Koriyama in Japan, and it sits alongside the rest of our Japanese Whisky range if you want to compare it against the cask finished bottles on the same shelf.
