Japanese Whiskey 12 Years Old

Twelve Years in Oak: Malt and grain whiskies aged for at least twelve years in oak casks come together in Tenbatsu, the oldest expression in the Onikishi range, bringing the depth, warmth and quiet polish that only patient maturation can give Toffee, Honey and Orange Spice: Light toffee and gently spiced caramelised fruit on the nose, softened by oak and vanilla; toasted grain, a wisp of smoked malt and honey on the palate; then a layered finish of cereal, caramel, cedar and citrus Neat, With Water or as a Highball: Pour it neat, or add a few drops of water to coax out the spice and cedar; serve over one large ice cube for a slower sip, or lengthen with chilled soda water and a twist of orange for an elegant highball Rich Grain, Gentle Smoke: Toasty, rounded grain whisky forms the heart of this blend while malt adds a delicate thread of smoke; bottled at 43% ABV in a 70 cl bottle so the honey, oak and citrus come through with clarity and character A Gift With a Legend: Onikishi means demon knight in Japanese, and Tenbatsu recalls the divine judgement of Japanese lore that restores balance; in a gift box for birthdays, Christmas, Father's Day or a thank you to whisky lovers aged 18 and over
