This is one of the first whiskies from Sakurao Distillery (formerly Chugoku Jozo) to be distilled in Japan. Previously, they've been producing Togouchi whisky - aged in a railway tunnel in the Hiroshima mountains, but using sourced whiskies from overseas. Sakurao, on the other hand is 100% Japanese, aged in Sakurao in four different cask types (ex-Bourbon, ex-Sherry, American Oak & Mizunara). There's reportedly a bit of peat to this youngster. 43% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
