Shinobu Mizunara Single Cask Japanese Single Malt Whisky

The Shinobu Mizunara Single Cask is a cask-strength Japanese single malt finished in Mizunara Oak casks.

Shinobu is made by Ken Usami, who founded Niigata Beer 20 years ago, before obtaining a whisky licence in 2018.

While the distillery was being built, he began experimenting with blended world whiskies finished in Mizunara Oak — early work that eventually led to releases like this one.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Rich vanilla and elegant oak.

Palate: Notes of sandalwood, incense, gentle spice, and subtle coconut

Finish: Long and lingering with a persistent woody sweetness.
