Sakurao Single Malt Japanese Whisky

Produced by SAKURAO Brewery and Distillery in Hatsukaichi, Hiroshima, Sakurao Single Malt Japanese Whisky is made entirely from malt whisky distilled in Japan and matured at the coastal Sakurao warehouse. The whisky combines spirit aged for more than three years across four different cask types. Bottled at 43% ABV, it offers a rich fruit-forward profile of raisins, orange and peach with vanilla sweetness, balanced acidity and bitterness, gentle smoke and lingering oak.

Food Pairing: Grilled beef, roasted pork, smoked salmon, aged cheese, dark chocolate, or orange and peach-based desserts.

Tasting Notes: Rich and fruity, combining raisins, orange and peach with vanilla sweetness, balanced acidity, gentle bitterness, smoke and seasoned oak.

Nose: Aromatic and fruit-forward, with raisins, fresh orange and ripe peach accompanied by subtle barrel character.

Palate: Smooth and balanced, developing vanilla sweetness alongside ripe fruit, moderate acidity, gentle bitterness and subtle oak.

Finish: Long and satisfying, with lingering sweetness, pleasant smoke and aromatic barrel notes.

Serve: Enjoy neat at room temperature, over a large cube of ice, or as a Japanese highball to emphasize its fruit and gentle smoky character.
