Product Description
Exclusive to The Whisky Exchange, this single cask Kanosuke is the final release in our Brush Stroke series of single cask Kanosuke bottlings. A rarely-seen peated expression from the Japanese distillery made using barley malted to 50 ppm, this whisky was then fully matured in a single first-fill bourbon cask. Showcasing a smoky version of the distillery's modern Japanese whisky. Deep and contemplative, as smoke meets layered orchard fruit, vanilla-rich sweetness and warming spice, lifted by a gentle coastal salinity, and a long, poised finish.

Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
Billy Abbott, The Whisky Exchange
Nose
Bright, fresh orange with singed orange peel. Cinder toffee and dark caramel develop along with bright tropical fruit salad and sweet orchard fruit: apples and pears with banana, papaya and mango. Funky lemon peel notes build: smouldering and spicy.
Palate
Soft, sweet smoke leads into roasted bananas and toffee sauce. Sharp apple and sweet pear sit alongside lemon and orange peels, all joined by hints of mango. Spicy notes build along with milk chocolate and soft gingerbread.
Finish
Gravelly smoke and old coal stoves linger, with lemon drizzle cake, Jaffa Cakes and soft baking spice notes fading slowly.
Single malt from a different coast
From the mellow coast of Kagoshima at Japan’s southern-most tip, Kanosuke bring generations of experience making shochu to their complex and intriguing whiskies. Exemplifying the best in modern Japanese whisky, this limited release from Kanosuke uses first-fill bourbon casks to showcase their thoughtful, multifaceted spirit. Familiar, yet different.
