Summary

This 16-year-old rice whisky from Fukano Distillery is a unique expression aged in sherry casks, offering a distinct profile that sets it apart from traditional grain or malt whiskies. The use of rice as the base grain imparts a smooth and slightly creamy texture, while the sherry cask aging adds layers of complexity and depth to the spirit.

On the nose, you can expect a rich bouquet of dried fruits, with prominent notes of raisins and figs, complemented by a subtle hint of oak. The palate is equally inviting, with a harmonious blend of sweet and nutty flavors, underscored by the influence of sherry, which brings forward a luxurious sweetness and a touch of spice.

The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of dried fruits and a gentle warmth. This whisky is well-suited for those who appreciate a deep, rich flavor profile with a touch of elegance and sophistication.
