All in perfect balance. This whisky has a honey gold colour. Aromas of berry fruit, orchard apple, wild honey and mountain oak spice. Candied grape, rich cocoa, smoked pine nut, across the palate finishing with caramelised pear and honey smoke.

Not strictly a Japanese whisky, Togouchi source grain whiskies from Scotland & Canada and aged them in Japan.

Nutty, spicy whisky with a lovely butterscotch mouth feel. On the palate it expresses vanilla sweetness and a fine peat iodine, with hazelnuts and chocolate on the finish. Almost feels like a whisky/bourbon hybrid.

Mitchell's Glengyle Ltd. are very proud to be continuing and adding to the great Campbelltown Distilling tradition and the choice of the name reflects that. Kilkerran is derived from the Gaelic 'Ceann Loch Cille Chiarain' which is the name of the original settlement where Saint Kieran had his relgious cell and Campbeltown now stands. Kilkerran is thought to be suitable name for a new Campbeltown Malt since it was unusual for the old Campbeltown distillers to be called after a Glen, a custom more usually associated with the Speyside region. This is a new release cask strength whisky from Glengyle distillery fully matured in ex-bourbon. Bottled at 55.8%. A floral element, reminiscent of elderflower and heather, introduces this dram. There are notes of vanilla and custard creams and a confectionary note to foam bananas. Notes of cocoa nibs and Iberico ham are introduced on the palate, paired with an earthy peat smoke influence. The development of a tropical note comes through in hints of pineapple and coconut. The peat smoke lingers in the finish along with a digestive biscuit note. Note - item does not come with external tube. In the distillery's words: “It is our intention to reduce the amount of packaging we use across our group of companies, from Springbank and Kilkerran to William Cadenhead Ltd, and that any we do use is produced and procured as sustainably as possible."

Product Description: Born from the quiet innovation of Kagoshima’s coastline, this is whisky with a shochu soul. The Kanosuke Hioki Pot Still 2024 Edition is a limited Japanese release that blurs the line between tradition and invention. Produced at Hioki Distillery, the sister site to Kanosuke, it draws on a heritage of shochu-making to create a grain whisky of striking clarity and depth. Crafted from both malted and unmalted barley, the whisky is distilled in rare stainless steel pot stills under vacuum pressure, a method borrowed from shochu that tempers heavier compounds and yields a lighter, silkier spirit. Maturation takes place in a thoughtful mix of new American white oak, ex-bourbon, and re-charred ex-shochu casks, layering subtle sweetness and gentle bitterness in balance. Bottled at 55% ABV and awarded Gold at the 2025 World Whiskies Awards, this release shows why Kanosuke has quickly become one of Japan’s most talked-about producers.
