Ohishi Distillery 10 Year

Gold
Nose / Aroma / Smell
The delightfully floral aroma wraps around notes reminiscent of Sake. There's prominent oak and fruit on the nose as well.
Flavor / Taste / Palate
It's a deep and complex one. The brandy-cask sweet fruit notes are obvious on the palate with green apples and pears especially prominent. The oak spice rounds it up nicely.
Finish
Finishes long with fruity, rice, and oak notes slowly fading.
Ohishi On the Japanese island of Kyushu, next to the pure river Kuma, there's a unique family-run Ohishi distillery, founded in 1872, uses sorcery to turn rice into Whisky. Yes, rice. Where distilleries usually use barley, Ohishi uses Japan's favorite grain to create this superb sake-like Spirit. And not just any type: they use mochi rice from Kumamoto, and add gohyakumanishi rice, grown through organic farming and employs koi carp to control weeds.
